Description
Rushnyk consisting of two parts sewn together like a curtain, made of factory-produced cotton fabric. The embroidery is done with red and black threads using the «cross-stitch» technique, featuring three wide stripes of stylized floral ornament (garland with flowers, branches of half-bloomed roses, reeds alternating with lilies). The ornamental stripes are separated by two white openwork bands with geometric patterns. The bottom is decorated with wide factory-made lace with a wavy edge.
Legend: Part of the collection of the Sloboda Ukraine Museum named after H.S. Skovoroda.
