Rare Masterpiece: Vintage Hutsul Hand-Embroidered Rushnyk
from the High Carpathians (1960s-1970s)
A Piece of Living History from Verkhovyna This is a soulful artifact of Ukrainian Highland culture.
This authentic Rushnyk (ceremonial runner) was discovered in the heart of the Verkhovyna region, sourced from a private domestic collection where it was preserved for decades. It carries the ancient traditions and artistic spirit of the Hutsul people.
Artistry in Every Stitch Crafted during the 1960s–1970s, this runner is a symphony of traditional colors:
sun-drenched mustard yellow, earthy terracotta, deep forest green, and rich chocolate brown.
The complex geometric patterns are iconic to the region, representing harmony and protection.
Key Highlights:
100% Authentic Handwork: Every single cross-stitch was made by hand
(the reverse side beautifully showcases the artisan's intricate work).
• Impressive Size: Approximately 182 cm x 32 cm (71.6" x 12.6") — a perfect statement piece for a table runner or wall decor.
• Natural Materials: Woven on high-quality vintage linen/cotton fabric, typical for mid-20th century Ukrainian textiles.
• Direct Provenance: Acquired directly from the Carpathian region (Verkhovyna).
Condition Report:
This vintage treasure is in excellent structural condition. The embroidery remains remarkably vibrant and crisp.
As a testament to its age and authentic history, there are a few faint, light storage spots on the white fabric
