This textile exudes both calm and energy. The weaver incorporates fundamental characteristics found in many Late Classic Period textiles. There are multiple hues of crimson colored yarn, both synthetic and likely cochineal dyed wool that create dimensionality and interest. The center of the textile contains an open negative space, offering balance, order, and harmony. The post Late Classic design delivers opticality and energy: the brown and white striped bands of alternating colors and direction make the textile feel like it is moving in our mind’s eye.

Wool and dye (natural and synthetic)
