//A new Artisan Direct listing from our partners in Cobán!//
A beautiful newly crafted cotton blouse made by combining two panels handwoven on a traditional backstrap loom by our partner weavers up in Cobán. The base weave includes gentle brocade figures, and is embellished with floral embroidery full of French knots on the neckline and sleeves.
Note that both the handwoven panels have all four clean selvage ends, a technically challenging feat that is laborious. The end results in structurally strong textiles that reduces waste as all panels are used to their fullest extent.
We think this blouse fits like US size M.
