Keptar is a traditional sleeveless outerwear with a modern cut based on ancient motifs, which is found in the Western part of Ukraine.
Made of high-quality eco-fur and semi-wool fabric with a knitted base that does not roll and will have a long service life. The length of the keptar reaches below the knees, which was characteristic of the Bukovyna region. There is a belt at the waist, and a low collar around the neck.
Mainly festive keptars were sewn for weddings, only then worn to church. It is especially elegant to wear a keptar for the Easter morning service. When it's still cool outside, such clothes keep you warm. Each region of Ukraine is distinguished by the richness of keptar ornamentation, it is also called "pysan" for its picturesqueness. Previously, such tank tops were a special luxury and were worth as much as a cow or land to a peasant.
This model allows you to wear it both with light and dark monophonic dresses, skirts, and classic or short trousers in business and everyday styles.
Fabric: eco fur, semi-wool
Made in Ukraine

The earrings are very beautiful. They fully correspond to the photo and description on the website. A little heavy, you won't be able to wear them for long. But they are worth it. A nice bonus: seeds that can be germinated and beautiful packaging. I recommend the seller!
I am very happy with the necklace. It’s beautiful and intricate. The communication with the seller was great, she customised the piece for me and replaced the chain in the back with laces. Thank you for the great experience.
These large flags arrived in 2 weeks to Canada! They are very good material and have a closed pocket to insert a pole. They were beautifully wrapped
A beautiful motanka doll, full of symbolism and warmth. You can feel the care and tradition woven into every detail. A meaningful piece of Ukrainian heritage.
Very emotional upon receiving this wonderful doll proudly displaying the colors of Ukraine, right down to her necklace adorned with the national tryzub...😍 It is made with great care, and was carefully delivered in a pretty box. Vira is attentive, and we can only wish a long life to her beautiful shop.🍀 And long life to Ukraine of course!💙💛
t's a beautiful set of linen napkins, with a special story! I'll be proud to use them when guests come for dinner.
Everything was really fine. The shirt fits perfectly and the pattern is very nice. Also you can make the long sleeves short that's a nice feature. Really quick shipment and a very nice packaging. In general a very reliable shop. Thanks a lot.
Very nice quality sash, belt. Looks cool with linen pants wanted something folk traditional, different. Takes a few days shipping but worth the wait, packaged super nice presentation as a gift. I would purchase more for gifts and myself in the future. God bless those fighting for their FREEDOM, support them anyway you can.
These pysanky wooden eggs are beautiful! I cannot wait to display them next spring. There's one for each of us - and in our favorite colors, too. Lovely workmanship. Thank you for your art!
It is a beautiful “Khustynochka” and I will be delighted to feature it on an upcoming album cover!
Let customers speak for us
My made in Ukraine Ukrainian flag came hand wrapped with a bow tied around a compostable paper wrapper saying from Ukraine with love. Although I am flying this flag on my home, it arrived ready to give as-is as a gift. My package came with a little organic business card with flower seeds embedded in it. I will only buy flags here from now on. Slava Ukraini!
Can’t thank you enough the book “Ukrainian treasures the Hope Chest Ukrainian traditions” and Unique Motanka Doll from Ukraine - Handmade Wooden Stand Protector of Home and Family are truly beautiful and highly recommended

Love this doll. She looks just like spring and makes a lively addition to our home. Couldn’t have asked for anything better! Love it!
Thank you so much for the stunning eggs!!! They came today.. on the day our President embarrassed all of the US with his treatment of your heroic President Zelenskyy. Please know the majority of Americans stand with you and are disgusted with Trump.. Slava Ukraine🇺🇦
Necklace is beautiful and excellent craftsmanship. Necklace was packaged securely. Prompt delivery.
Great quality and service! It was custom made with my measurements. High quality with every detail, nice natural fabric, hidden pockets, long belt and beautiful embroidery make this dress unique and outstanding. Wonderful service!
Highly recommend this dress and this store. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you!!
Light and airy and absolutely beautiful. Nicer than the pictures show.

This Ukrainian blouse is very beautiful. The colorful embroidery against the black background is very strriking. The embroidery is very beautiful, and the material of the blouse is excellent. I really love it.
Great little gift ideas for my family. I purchased 3 different Motanky- each one will live in a different home. I like the idea of all my family being protected by these beautiful little treasures.
Lovely napkins! These are bright and cheery and perfect for spring and summer! Well made and quality linen! A wonderful item yet again~
Love the Workmans.
This is a darling amulet/doll! The colors and detail are lovely and quality is fantastic! I will be using it in my classroom with older students as a talking piece and sharing about Ukraine with them. Thanks so very much! Your friend in the US - we support you!
