San Antonio Aguas Calientes

Exquisite huipil made in the town of San Antonio Aguas Calientes. This area is known for its incredibly detailed weaving that is frequently copied in other nearby towns. This beautiful huipil measures 26″ across the shoulders, and 21 1/2″ from the neckline to the bottom edges (folded). The neck opening is square shaped, and measures 4 1/4″ x 4 1/4” and has a zipper opening along one shoulder that measures 3 1/2″ long allowing more room to fit over the head.

This spectacular huipil has the traditional rows of zigzag mountains, triangular patterns of the rivers, and many mayan stars. The bird and flower design at the shoulders is done in the very fine and detailed San Antonio weaving style where the pattern can be seen both inside and out. The weaving is incredibly fine, causing this huipil to be wonderfully soft to the touch. This is a perfect example of the classic San Antonio Aguas Calientes design.

The colors are a full spectrum of green, blue, orange, red, yellow and much more. The design is woven on a royal blue woven cotton base. The collar and sleeves are trimmed in a deep burgundy velvet.

This huipil is in very good used condition. There may be some slight wear in the form of a few loose threads. This huipil has approximately 3 very small areas where the weaving is slightly worn through.
