Mola from Panama. Unfinished one is 9\"x 8\", it comes in excellent condition with no fading or stains. Edges not hemmed. An estate find, not sure of the age. Excellent Art form. Traditionally sewn on a shirt, one in front and another on the back.
\"The mola originated with the tradition of Kuna women painting their bodies with geometrical designs, using available natural colors; in later years these same designs were woven in cotton, and later still, sewn using cloth bought from the European settlers of Pannama.\" (Wikipedia)
