Blue Hand Woven Cotton Scarf with Fringe from Mexico, "Periwinkle Chiapas Accent"
Ships Fast from the U.S.
One of Mexico's most iconic garments is the rebozo or chal, a very long rectangular shawl, made famous in images of fighting "Adelitas" women from the Revolution. The traditional backstrap weavers of the Chiapas highlands make this blue and pale yellow cotton scarf with the same exact techniques. Work such as this is supported and defended by the Na Bolom Cultural Association in San Cristóbal de las Casas.
