This post-1980 corte was hand woven on a foot treadle loom in two weft striped cotton panels. Typical of Santiago Atitlán cortes, the panels are not equal width, with a main panel and a matching narrower piece added for length. This corte features the very complex ikat dye patterns for which Santiago Atitlán is famous. Ikat is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles that employs a resist dying process similar to tie-dye. This fine example is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Estefana Culajah of Patzún at the La Fuente textile market in Antigua Guatemala. The top photograph shows only half of the material. Typically, we sell cortes for yardage. W91 x L400 cm. (12-325) $ 100. OBO
