This lovely cotton shawl features narrow white stripes on midnight black cotton. Woven by hand on a backstrap loom, it evokes the mountain paths in Mexico's Chiapas highlands. Lorenza Perez is a master of this ancestral Maya weaving technique, and a rebozo like this one can take anywhere from 28 to 40 hours to complete. Textured geometric borders at each end are embroidered by hand, and the fabric alternates woven areas with unwoven warp threads, to achieve a textile that drapes beautifully.
