Nahuala Woman's Huipil --- Maria told me this daily use huipil was is around 10+ years old and was made by her grandaughter, Manuela. She pointed out the "gallo" (rooster), "estrellas" stars and "pajaritas" (small birds) finely brocaded into the weave. Purchased from Maria in 2013.
Condition: Fair to Good Significant bleeding of color and some other spotting. Two selvages fine, others with some openness. Moderate wear and a few loose threads. Good condition if bleeding doesn't bother you, if it does, I'd call it fair.
Purchased from Maria in 2013. Made by made by her grandaughter, Manuela
