This unique white Guatemalan Huipil features geometric tight designs brocade and abstract Mayan shapes. Hand-woven on a back-strap loom, this 100% cotton Huipil is originally from the region of San Andrés Semetabaj, Solola, Guatemala. 

Traditionally, Guatemalan tops are very vibrant. Finding white base tops are really difficult to find and also very rare. 

This top was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well-matched white cotton base panels. The panels are decorated by supplementary brocade featuring geometric patterns in a dark burgundy color.

When you buy a Huipil, you are truly wearing Guatemalan history and an one-of-a-kind, masterpiece.
