sombrero (Hat)

Don Jose Garcia Martin and his wife Francisca Diaz Godinez organized the production of the clothing from San Juan Atitan in this collection (accession 2551). They apportioned the work among family members and others known for their skills in the community.

Man's yellow-white hat with three black, circular and patterned bands and a black edged brim. Around the top of the hat are black and pink ribbons as well as a pink and blue twisted string. The ribbons and string are stitched on with red, pink and blue thread and the ends of the black ribbon are stitched in red thread. Both ribbons and string have both of their ends trailing from the back of the hat.
