The Kuna People Have Chosen An Eagle With Spread Wings, Lifting Off As Their Tribal Crest. This Is A Lovely Version of That Crest. Very Finely Made With Tiniest Hand Stitching, Extra Straight, Narrow and Even Lines and Cuts, Excellent Background Filler , Workmanship and Design Plus the Beautiful Eagle As the Subject.. This delightful piece of ethnic, textile art was entirely hand made (tredle maching stitching on the side seams), and was purchased from a Kuna Indian mola maker on the San Blas Island of Nalunega, off of the coast of Panama. It was originally made to be part of a blouse and, as with all genuine molas, it has been worn. It has now been carefully taken apart to be used as framed art or as part of your own special creation.
