Handmade ceramic cup Bar style with Tavern motif Ceramics of Podillia

The "Shynok" (Tavern) patterned *Barske Hornyatko* (Bar-style mug) is a handcrafted piece by artisans from "Keramika Podillia" in the Vinnytsia region. They are dedicated to reviving Ukraine's cultural heritage by creating tableware featuring the traditional designs of their region.

Bar ceramics are a renowned folk craft from the town of Bar in the Podillia region.

In the 19th century, Bar was a major pottery center; its wares were celebrated for their elegance, white background, and distinctive graphic style. The craft's most recognizable features are the "horn" painting technique and *flankuvannia* (color blending), which create an organic harmony of white, green, ochre-yellow, and brown tones.

Made from natural, eco-friendly clay and finished with a safe glaze, this piece is perfect for daily use and for serving hot or cold dishes.
