UKRAINE FDC Kharkiv Ukrainian embroidery Ethnography Registered let-r 16.05.2024

Embroidery is not just a decorative element. This is Ukrainian history, mythology, religion and the ancient art of our ancestors. Scientists believe that embroidery encodes the nation's genetic code. The embroidered shirts, rushnyks (embroidered towels) and head-cloths represent a variety of techniques and colors from different regions of Ukraine. 

The series of postage stamps “Ukrainian Embroidery – Code of the Nation”, launched in 2018, continues with the issue of a stamp depicting the embroidery of Kharkiv region. The Kharkiv region is represented by a nineteenth-century women's shirt with a pictorial image of cockerels on the sleeves, a symbol of the sun, light and the awakening of life.
