WELCOME TO ZELIV!

Named for the village of my ancestors in western Ukraine, Zeliv is a collection of jewelry, clothing and accessories hand crafted from curated pieces of vintage Ukrainian embroidery. Embroidery (vyshyvka) has a rich history in Ukraine.  It has long appeared in folk dress and has played an important role in weddings as well as other celebrations of life. By purchasing an item from Zeliv, you will truly be carrying a unique piece of Ukrainian history.  Perhaps part of a wedding rushnyk (ceremonial towel) or a decorative covering from someone's Easter basket.
Enjoy your little piece of Ukraine!
