Santa Catarina Palopo Woman's Huipil ---Deer, butterflies,Tree of Life, corn, and zig zag lightning designs on this nicely brocaded huipil that was woven on a back-strap loom. The huipil has 3 panels and the base color is a dark blue contrasts well with the various blues of the brocade.  Neck and arm holes are finely finished with crochet work in a sort of sun design. 

Condition:  Good used condition.  The huipil shows light wear and a few loose threads. Sides seams open (could be easily sewn closed).  Half of the panels are fringed others are selvage finished. . As with many Santa Catarina Palopo huipils, there is some uneveness to the length of the panels.  It could be hemmed to a even length, if desired. 

Huipil Dimensions: 

  • Width: 34 inches
  • Length:  28-29 inches
  • Neck:  5.5 inches wide by 2.5 inches deep.  Fits easily over my 22 inch head.
* 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.
