Terra Experience Used Huipil Collection

Regular price $45.00 Sale

Chajul Woman's Huipil ---    The huipils white background and purple designs give some of the feel of a ceremonial Chajul huipil.  However the multicolored  bird designs, modified sleeve design and nice velvet edging around the neck are not typical.   Back-strap loomed, traditional 2-panel construction huipil. The huipil's soft base material has the feel of what Mayan women often call "Aleman" and is most likely a soft rayon thread. 

 

Condition: Generally good used condition with a few loose threads, even wear and some spotting (especially on one sleeve - see picture). Selvages on all panels of fairly even lengths.    Side seams are sewn closed with excess material removed (can't let out).

  • Width:  23  huipil, 32 sleeves inches
  • Length:  24 inches,  
  • Neck:  7 inches wide by 2 inches deep

* Remember the huipil's width should be at least 1.5 to 2 times your shoulders width, to allow for fitting your frame and to cover part of your upper arms
