Craft & Heritage
Kosiv painted ceramics come from the Hutsul region of Ukraine's Carpathians and were added to UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2019. Characteristic green, yellow-to-ochre, and brown decoration, hand-drawn motifs, and individual artisan work give each piece its distinctive character.
