Children's Hutsul Kiptar "Christmas Star" with embroidery and pom-poms

“Little Hutsul — great pride of the family”

The children's kepterik “Christmas Star” is a festive model in the traditions of Hutsul kepterik for boys and girls. Burgundy cashmere, black trim under the fur, red serrated ribbon, and bright embroidery with diamonds resembling stars make the children's image truly Carpathian. Fluffy colorful pom-poms on the strings are especially liked by children. The kepterik is lightweight, does not restrict movement, and fits perfectly over the embroidered shirt.

Festive attire for little ones

The children's kepterik replicates the cut and decoration of the adult model “Christmas Star”. The embroidery in yellow, orange, green, and red threads runs along the edges and transitions into compositions at the bottom, while the black trim under the fur frames the stand-up collar, armholes, and edges.

The pom-poms on the strings serve both as decoration and ties — the kepterik can be worn open or tied. Want a matching look for the whole family? The adult model is available in our catalog: kepterik “Christmas Star” in burgundy cashmere.

Advantages of the material

• Light and comfortable. Without lining, the kepterik does not weigh down the child and does not overheat at indoor celebrations.
• Pleasant to the touch. Soft cashmere with a light nap does not prick and is comfortable over a shirt.
• Holds its shape. The dense fabric does not wrinkle even after an active celebration.
• Bright in photos. The burgundy base and colorful embroidery look great in festive shots.

Children's kepterik in Hutsul traditions

In Hutsulshchyna, children have been dressing in festive attire similar to adults since childhood — this passed down the love for their native clothing and respect for traditions from generation to generation. Little ones in kepteriks went caroling with adults, carrying the Christmas star and blessing the hosts.

The brass workshop in Kosiv offers children's kepteriks that retain the recognizable Hutsul character while being convenient for modern children. Such a kepterik will complement an embroidered shirt, a sash, or a Hutsul hat and become a favorite festive outfit.

Care

• Delicate dry cleaning is recommended.
• Clean fresh stains with a damp sponge without rubbing.
• Do not bleach or dry on a radiator.
• Iron from the reverse side through a damp cloth, avoiding the trim and pom-poms.
• Store on hangers in a cover made of natural fabric.
