Product Description
This authentic San Pedro huipil from Guatemala is a beautiful example of traditional Mayan weaving and modern design adaptation. Handwoven on a traditional backstrap loom, it features bright, colorful patterns and a distinctive V-neck style created by cutting, folding in, and sewing the neckline by hand — a unique finish rarely seen in vintage pieces.
Made from two woven panels and open at the sides, this huipil offers a comfortable fit and beautiful drape. The neckline is approximately 24 inches around, making it a good fit for most head sizes without the need for alteration.
