Pinotepa Nacional Huipil. Coyuchi and Indigo. Oaxaca, Mexico.

This is a gorgeous handwoven huipil from the Costa Chica of Oaxaca. The huipil is woven of soft hand spun cotton. The brown color is the natural color of the native coyuchi cotton from the region. The beautiful blue color is made from a a natural indigo dye and the purple is atural snail dye (becomig very rare as it is very labor intensive to produce). Huipiles from this region are difficult to come by and this is a fabulous example.

This was purchased from the artisan at asking price.

Chest 27"
Length 30"
