1970s Embroidered Folk Blouse

This spectacular Mexican folk blouse is adorned with vibrant floral embroidery throughout. These intricately embroidered pieces have a rich history, evolving from traditional Mayan garments. This blouse is tunic length with a classic loose and smock shape, featuring short sleeves, crochet trim, and cutout detailing. Beautifully embroidered with flower-filled vases and foliage, it is crafted from a lightweight cotton and synthetic blend. 

Condition: There is some minor fraying to the thread crisscrossing on the body, a teeny tiny mend to the bottom area of the back, and two very small stains near the right armpit at the front and one near the hem. Some light wear to the fabric where it has thinned slightly in places.
