About the Product

Zgardas are among the oldest chest decorations of the Hutsuls. In terms of composition, it is a complex system that combines one or several rhythmic-plastic rows of various solar signs, strung on "chains," straps, etc., placed at a distance of "crosspieces" from each other and connected by "cheprags." The compositional center often features a larger equilateral cross that unites all the others, sometimes progressively smaller crosses.

Production time: up to 10 days.
