This beautiful huipil is woven in backstrap loom with cotton
threads.
Embroidered on both sides with the characteristic bicephalous eagle of the Chinanteco people.
The chinantecos huipiles have a lot of history and tradition. These grandmothers learned sitting next to their grandmothers, watching every movement and keeping in their memory the designs, so this detailed textile art is at risk of disappearing.
Each design and each garment that comes out of their hands recalls the cultural tradition of their ancestors, as well as the teachings and the vision that their ancestors had of their environment. The representations that speak about their cosmovision stand out, portrayed in the mythical figures, such as the feathered serpents, beings that for the Chinantecos stopped being reptiles and became birds, considered guardians of the gods and teaching men to work the fields, art and social organization.
A recurring theme is the origin of life, this myth tells the creation of the Sun and the Moon, represented in their huipiles by a two-headed eagle.
Give yourself the opportunity to wear a unique garment, from the hands of the artisan to your wardrobe.
The effort and fatigue contributed by women artisans should be valued.
The backstrap loom Huipil is not expensive, it is a wearable art.
