A backstrap loom. One month — and the result is this.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis striped rebozo comes from a Purepecha artisan in Michoacán, Mexico, where the tradition of backstrap loom weaving has been continuous for centuries. Her color combinations are what draw collectors: the stripes are not arbitrary but considered, balanced the way only a weaver who has spent decades at the \u003cem\u003etelar de cintura\u003c\/em\u003e knows how to balance them. At each end, she ties every silk thread of the fringe by hand into the knotted \"flowers\" the Purepecha call \u003cem\u003erapacejo\u003c\/em\u003e, and adds feathers as her personal mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe backstrap loom is one of the oldest textile technologies in the Americas. The Purepecha (P'urhépecha) of Michoacán have kept it alive not as a museum practice but as a living craft — tied to the body, shaped by the weaver's own posture and movement. A rebozo at this scale takes approximately one month to complete. What you are holding is the result of that commitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% cotton woven with rayon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFringe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-tied silk \"flowers\" (\u003cem\u003erapacejo\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Backstrap loom (\u003cem\u003etelar de cintura\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional Purepecha striped rebozo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Michoacán, Mexico — Purepecha (P'urhépecha) community\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTime to weave:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately one month per piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 76.0 inches (193.0 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 30.0 inches (76.2 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mexican Oaxacan Silver Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49172696334578,"sku":null,"price":568.7,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0405\/2611\/9063\/files\/purepecha-rebozo-fringe-stripes-shawl-green-striped-276.webp?v=1778990419","url":"https:\/\/mexicanoaxacansilverjewelry.com\/en-au\/products\/purepecha-rebozo-with-fringe-and-stripes-copy-1","provider":"Mexican Oaxacan Silver Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
