Zunil vintage daily huipil.
Hand woven on a back strap loom in two warp-striped all cotton base panels
that 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. Shadow weave weft stripes.
Circa 1970. This classic example is in very good condition.
From the collection of Joan Jacobson of Tucson. W 80 x L 90 cm. 21-159. $ 120 or best offer. Sold.
