The heart of a Ukrainian home was the stove, whose warm embrace heated not only the body but the soul. In the Hutsul region, and in the Kosiv area in particular, the stoves of wealthy households were often faced with lavish tiles that are now on the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage. Gaptuvalnya has recreated their floral and geometric ornaments in contemporary clothing and textiles, a reminder of a unique part of our culture.
