This choker combines the power of symbols with contemporary aesthetics.

The ceramic beads feature a double-sided Hutsul ornament, with each side telling its own story: one side features ‘kucheri’ – a spiral motif symbolising growth, youth, love and fertility. It is one of the most common motifs in Hutsul art and is used in carving and embroidery.
