Project "GNIZDO x Obukhiv rushnyk"

The goal of the project is to introduce, modernize and popularize one of the most interesting types of Ukrainian rushnyks among a wider audience, draw attention to the uniqueness of this type of ceremonial textile, get to know the craftsmen and their works, digitize modern examples.
The starting impulse for our project was getting to know the representatives of the NGO "Union of Masters "Creative Heritage" and their inspired work over many years on the popularization of the Obukhiv "stitched" rushnyk.
We decided to tell what is unique, to show the traditions of embroidery and the work of talented craftsmen who continue to study and preserve this art form.

We have the great honor to present to you the works of modern craftsmen, which are created in the traditions of the Obukhiv "stitched" rushnyk.
All craftswomen constantly participate in exhibitions of masters of folk art and national-level exhibitions, demonstrating their rushnyks not only in Ukraine, but also abroad, including in Bulgaria and Turkey. They are also participants in the "Best Work of the Year" exhibitions of the National Union of Folk Art Masters of Ukraine.
In this way, you will be able to support craftsmen who continue the ancient craft and become the owner of part of the cultural heritage.
All works are completely unique, in a single copy, made by hand.
It takes 6 months of work for a craftswoman to make one rushnyk.

All descriptions and information are provided directly by the craftsmen and remain unchanged.

Please note that all photos and videos taken within the project are images of MODERN works made in the tradition of the Obukhiv "stitched" rushnyk and are not examples of a completely traditional rushnyk.
