Welcome! |
 |
 |
There
are thousands of ways by which the talented hands of our
ancestors have been crafting true treasures of beauty.
Handed down from generation to generation, but preserving
the personality of Romanian people, these techniques are
still being used during present times. Amongst these one can
mention the weaving technique, embroidery or crocheting.
All these handmade products are widely used: as household
articles, clothing, decorative accessories or articles used
in customs.
Weaving and embroidering are decorating techniques which
confer special characteristics to these objects. |
 |
|
The subcarpathic ethnical
regions Arges and Muscel excel in embroidery technique, with
a large variety of embroidery seams. The specific of our
work is the pulled threads technique. The number of pulled
threads is directly linked to the degree of complexity of
decorative patterns to be created. The needlework afterwards
is realised with cotton, linen or silk threads having the
same colour as the background or different ones. The main
material used is a mixture of linen, cotton and sometimes
other fibers too. Another ancient technique we use is the
handmade crocheted lace and the most commonly used patterns
are geometrical and floral. |

Our work was highly appreciated in workshops, exhibitions
and fairs in important ethnographical museums: Romanian
Peasant’s Museum, Village Museum in Bucharest,The Astra
Museum of Traditional Folk Civilisation in Sibiu.
Nowadays, preserving the tradition does not signify
isolation. On the contrary, it signifies
open-mindedness. Therefore, the products realised and
presented here have both artistical and practical value. |
| They are well
adapted to the requirements of the modern life , using
at the same time the traditional ornaments of the folk
creation and preserving the specific of the handmade
work. |
