I love these older vintage Guatemalan huipilesHand woven thicker weave than the newer ones
This one has definitely been worn and loved, it isn't perfect but the imperfections make it more interesting IMO
Embroidered design wraps all the way around, the middle of the front and back is an open "lattice" work of embroidery thread, very cute!
The embroidery has some pulls, pretty normal for these, the stitching under the armpits was coming undone a bit, I did knot off the end threads and snipped them close to the knot, they may need a little more care eventually
There are a few surface "shreds" but no holes or stains
Overall just a cool vintage collectible piece with a lot of life left to wear, or I also display these on my wall in my "textiles and weavings" room :)
Cut simply in a square, drapes when worn
bust measures 29 inches pit to pit lying flat
length is 20 inches
