This is a typical example of a two colour (indigo blue/white) perraje where some stripes have simple jaspe patterning.  The weft in this example is white cotton; the weave is warp-faced.\r\n JASPE is the Indian term for tied-dyed yarns; JASPEADO describes the cloth woven from these yarns.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Unknown","id":"A1848"},"association":{"text":"","id":""},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"cotton (textile)","id":"AAT14067"}],"techniques":[{"text":"weaving","id":"AAT53642"},{"text":"ikat","id":"AAT249861"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Plain weave cotton, warp ikat","categories":[{"text":"Textiles","id":"THES48885"},{"text":"Accessories","id":"THES48998"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"T&F","id":"THES48601"},"images":["2018KT5763","2018KT5767","2018KT5768","2018KT5769","2006AP6099","2018KT5971","2019LV0709"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"001","id":"THES312696"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Scarf","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Mexico","id":"x30050"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":"probably"}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1875-1890","earliest":"1875-01-01","latest":"1890-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Bequeathed by Alfred Percival Maudslay","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Length","value":"2410","unit":"mm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"29/09/2020","earliest":"2020-09-29","latest":"2020-09-29"},"part":"","note":"Measured by conservation"},{"dimension":"Width","value":"775","unit":"mm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"29/09/2020","earliest":"2020-09-29","latest":"2020-09-29"},"part":"","note":"Measured by conservation"}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"Registered File no. 2743/1931.","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"Woven cotton; Mexico; 1875-1890","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"When acquired by the Museum in 1931 it was thought possible that this textile might have been woven in Switzerland, or that the yarn might have been dyed/printed in Switzerland.\r\nAnn P Rowe (Curator of Western Hemisphere Textiles, The Textile Museum, Washington DC: personal communication 1997) said this and other rebozos in the Maudslay Collection look more like Mexican than Guatemalan products and the presence of other Mexican textiles in his Collection means that such an attribution would not be out of line.  Mexican rebozos, both old and new, use more finely spun yarms and have narrower stripes than do Guatemalan ones.
