Ladunka pendant with red embroidery Л02

A ladunka with red embroidery — a traditional embroidered ethnic pocket purse worn on a belt. The piece is made of quality black Onyx homespun cloth. The ladunka is richly decorated with bright machine embroidery in red. The piece comes with a comfortable belt to hold it securely at the waist. A ladunka like this serves both as a striking adornment of the look and as a practical little pocket.

The ladunka is an old traditional piece that has always gone with the Ukrainian national costume. The red embroidery echoes the motifs in which Ukrainian embroidery blossomed. The piece completes a vyshyvanka beautifully and finishes a festive women’s look. In the old days a ladunka held grain, a comb or coins. Today a piece like this makes the ethnic look practical and stylish.
