Handwoven Zapotec Shawl in Natural Unbleached Cotton, "Zapotec Whisper"
Woven by hand, this elegant rebozo shawl whispers of Zapotec artistry. Bands of subtle geometric patterns alternate with drawn thread work that gives the wrap a beautiful drape. Delfina Ruiz works in natural, unbleached cotton and finishes the shawl with the luxurious hand-tied macramé fringe that is typical of Mexican rebozos.

"Zapotec Whisper Shawl"
Just received this shawl and I love it--heavy enough to provide some warmth and light enough to use summer and winter. The weaving is beautiful and I love the unbleached cotton color. So pleased!

Recieved this rebozo shawl as a gift from my husband & just love the hand crafted detail of it! It is great to wear outdoors on a cool evening or just wear around the house when relaxing reading a book or entertaining. Thank you Delfina & Novica!
