Two paneled utility cloth woven on a back strap loom. Each of the panels is finely brocaded different warp lines and flowers & candle holders patterns.

This technique is woven only in San Antonio Aguas Calientes. This piece can be used to cover the woman’s head or as a table cloth during the ceremony. Notice the four selvedge ends. All the colours are chemical dyes.  Please notice that the price includes FREE USPS Shipping!
