Kosiv Painted Ceramics is a Ukrainian National Art that was included in the UNESCO list of intangible heritage. It is a traditional Hutsul (a part of Ukraine) folk craft, one of the varieties of Ukrainian ceramics.
Today will talk with a Master of Kosiv Ceramics Victoria Nykyforak, who will tell us about the history and secrets of this gorgeous art. She will explain the meaning of the colors and patterns and show her incredible works!
The video is in Ukrainian with Ukrainian and English subtitles!
Meanwhile, you can subscribe to Victoria on Instagram: [ Ссылка ] and visit her website: [ Ссылка ] to see more artworks or to order one for yourself! 😍
I have already ordered a big plate and will show it to you when it arrives!
