M35 - Kuna Mola - San BlasIslands - Panama - Geometric Maze 1960s

This is a vintage 3 layer mola from the early 1960s. This mola features a pair of interlocking puzzle pieces that suggests a geometric maze. Very pleasing pattern. A very nice mola made by a skilled artist. An excellent example from this early time period.

Length = 45 cm (17+ inches) ; Width = 31 cm (12+ inches) ; Weight = 72 gm (2.5 ounces)

The colors on this mola are slightly faded as it was removed from a mola blouse. There is no obvious damage. This mola would display well on a wall if mounted in a frame or sewn into a pillow.

The mola is a rectangular piece of cloth that was made by Kuna [ Cuna ] Indians located in the San Blas Islands on the Atlantic coast of Panama between the Panama Canal and the country of Colombia.

The molas that I sell are from two sources: my family collection (purchased between 1953 and 1974) and from Dean Flora, a Baptist Missionary who spent much time in the San Blas Islands in the 1960s and early 1970s. item = mol35
