Zunil classic daily huipil.
This circa-1980 daily huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two warp-striped white cotton blend panels with shadow weaving in weft stripes.
These panels are joined by a multi-colored, hand embroidered decorative seams. This huipil is faithfully done in a traditional style and colors.
The collar is trimmed with a hand-embroidered buttonhole stitch. Zunil huipils are now rare without a heavy yoke of machine embroidery. This
classic example is in very good condition. It was acquired from the tienda of Sra. Bonifacia Bocó in the Mercado de Artesanos in Antigua.
W 73 x L 86 cm. (19-170) $ 100 or best offer.
