Ukrainian Embroidery Glass ~ Vintage

Original price was: CAD $26.00.Current price is: CAD $20.00.

This beautiful Ukrainian Embroidery Glass ~ Vintage is perfect for offerings in your ritual space or on your altar. Featuring stylized Rushnyk embroidery symbols covering it all around. Most people in the Ukrainian Canadian community are familiar with these Ukrainian- style ceramics. Items like platters, mugs, borshch bowls, and varenyky casseroles can be found. All of them strategically adorned with red, white, and black simulated embroidery design decals.

The “embroidery” patterns on these glasses look like typical, intricate Ukrainian cross-stitch patterns. Prior to the 90s, only a few floral embroidery decals could be found adorning ceramic statues, candles, or busts of the Holy Mother or Christ Jesus. Dr. Robert Klymasz, folklorist and retired curator from the Canadian Museum of Civilization, coined an appropriate slogan, calling them “Ukrainian logos.” In North America (especially in the early years), they have become emblematic of Ukrainian Canadian identity.
