Hearst Museum object titled Table runner, accession number 3-29996, described as Backstrap-loomed, warp-faced plain weave; support weft brocading; one piece; warps cut and twisted into fringe. 132 cm x 42 cm. Native name and meaning: Tela/Cloth Runner. Materials, techniques: Cotton: singles in red; cotton (sedalina) in 2-ply red, orange, green, and black; Sedalina: 4 two-ply in purple, white, green, red and blue. Context of use: Collected by Miguel Hun and donated to the museum in 1991. This piece is typical of the style and design of the Zacualpa, but it is made for sale as a runner for a table. Fringes are created by loose warp yarns which are twisted into approximately .25 inch thick, 5-inch long fringes that are knotted at the end. Support weft ends also create fringes on the side of the piece, another typical feature for this town. The design areas have twining on both sides, an unusual feature in Guatemalan textiles.
