    When I laid eyes on this beautiful with all the colors and 6 pointed stars I had to have it.I'm not sure if it's Native American or Jewish.Look like a poncho but it's not.Beautil 6 pointed stars with animals at the bottom.All handmade.I checked the stitching and it;s handmade.I would just love to know what this is or what it was used for.

      Wow, this is pretty amazing and so much work! Wonder how long it took them to make this. I couldn't really even guess, ok...I will guess, I don't think it's N.A. but if you did get it with the other, maybe it is??? Very cool too.

      i'm pretty sure that this beautiful huipil is from Huehuetenango - Ixtatan or San Mateo or somewhere around there. Guatemala.
