Povitryla the Flame Candlestick

Brand: NADRA

Description

Povitrylia is a figure from Ukrainian mythology, the daughter of the untamed Carpathian winds. The mountains are her home. They are the place where she finds the highest, most all-encompassing happiness. Povitrylia is as vibrant as the myth surrounding her. She is freedom-loving, impetuous, and eager for love. She will do anything for unbridled love — she will wrap you in her giant, flower-patterned wings to warm and look after you.

A distinctive white tri-candlestick featuring an openwork cross and delicate carving in the form of three portraits. It is lavishly adorned with tassels: small tassels/bells suspended from brass hooks. This candlestick boasts a wonderfully fresh colour scheme with terracotta, honey and soft green accents.

The candlestick shown here is a composite image. The main motif that inspired its creation was a specimen featured in the collection ‘Ukrainian Antiquities / from private collections / Art of Hutsulshchyna and Pokuttya’, conceived by Taras Lozinsky and published by Rodovid in 2002 [p. 292].

A candlestick that becomes part of the home. This triptych is richly decorated. Its five three-dimensional heads are particularly striking, each with its own unique character. This feature is common among authentic triptychs of an earlier date. A subtle detail: the tassels, which create a characteristic rustling sound when the candlestick is carried. The three heads serve as bases for the candle cups. The base is a slanted tetrahedron. The sculpture itself is solemn in its form, yet its scale makes it intimate and very practical for domestic use.

The candlestick presented here is a composite image. The motifs used in its creation belong to the private collections of Y. Lemik, B. Soroka, Y. Yurkevych and O. Lozinsky.

The candlestick is carved from lime wood, primed and coated with gesso, which gives the surface its characteristic texture. The warmth emanating from beneath is created by a red undercoat. A shellac primer adds strength to the layers. A distinctive feature of this sculpture is its almost complete coverage with transfer gold / potala. It is this that glimmers from beneath the paint as we delicately rub it in. For this candlestick, we explored the colour palette used in Ukrainian sacred and applied sculpture to convey the solemnity, joy and cosiness that reign in the family home.

Wooden candlestick

This is a large red triptych depicting the Crucifixion and the Baptism of Christ, with cherubs, and rich in symbolic detail.

This authentic candlestick featuring this motif belongs to Oksana Patyk’s collection. This three-branched candlestick and other folk art objects from the family collection were discovered by Volodymyr Patyk during ethnographic expeditions. In hundreds of sketches and works, the artist depicted the most characteristic motifs found in these artefacts. The very depiction of the trinity and other ethnographic motifs was an act of protest against the Soviet system, which led to the almost complete destruction of authentic crafts. The artist demonstrated how, by drawing inspiration from his people’s material heritage, one can develop a whole universe of meanings and symbols. And it was this candlestick from a private collection that was entrusted to us for reproduction, so that it might once again be put to use and inspire.

Sculptural candlestick ‘The Ox Lifting the Light’

Chamotte clay, copper oxide, glaze

The ox symbolises endurance, strength, loyalty and stable prosperity. Its form conveys a sense of support and reliability. It is an image of labour that nourishes, strength that protects, and patience that drives us forward.

The candlestick features a mirror that amplifies the light of the flame, creating a sense of depth and space. The reflected light multiplies, as if expanding the boundaries of warmth and comfort.

The body of the ox and the reverse side of the mirror are adorned with svargas — ancient solar symbols from Ukrainian tradition, signifying the movement of the sun, vital energy and harmony.
