Бренд honCharivna

"In Monastyryshchenska TG, in Cherkasy region, a unique pottery center is actively operating, located in the picturesque village of Knyazha Krynytsia. This ethno-space “Ostap's Manor” and the workshop “honCharivna” have become a center for the popularization of pottery and decorative and applied arts, in particular, studying and rethinking the cultural heritage of Trypillya. One of the features of this ethno-space is the introduction of clay therapy - a technique that helps people restore their inner balance, harmony and reduce stress levels. While working with clay, a person can express their emotions, get rid of anxiety and get psychological relief. This activity combines creativity and therapy, making it useful for both children and adults. The founder of the workshop currently pays special attention to military personnel and their family members. The soul and inspirer of the “honCharivna” workshop is Ms. Olya - a teacher, craftswoman and trainer of creative classes. She not only teaches the basics of pottery, but also shares her deep love for art and culture. Her classes combine technical skill and emotional component, stimulating participants to self-expression and develop creative potential. Ms. Olya also conducts master classes in straw weaving, Easter egg making, various types of painting, pottery, which attract people to the history of Trypillya through the reproduction of ornaments, forms and styles characteristic of this period. The ethno-space “Ostap's Manor” and the “honCharivna” workshop in the village of Knyazha Krynytsia have become an important tourist, cultural and educational center that contributes to the preservation of traditions, the development of art and the improvement of people. 

"honCharivna" is a Ukrainian brand of original ceramics and products made of beads, satin ribbons, straw, as well as craft products made of lavender. The author of the products Olga Ostapenko creates amazing works of clay, jewelry made of beads, satin ribbons and straw. A craftswoman all her life! She began to embroider and weave with beads in childhood. Unique and original works are endowed with exclusively positive energy.

She became interested in embroidery and products made of satin ribbons at an older age. Original embroidery with satin ribbons of dresses, shirts and towels has grown from a hobby into a job that brings pleasure.

Since 2022, I have been studying pottery, working with a pottery wheel. Each product carries its own special energy, both for the master and for the person who uses it. In her works, "honCharivna" uses high-quality materials. Clay products are fired twice, the first firing is waste, the second - with high-quality glazes at 1080 degrees. Order fulfillment time from ceramics: 10-14 days. Handmade ceramic product is created to order. The execution time of an individual order depends on the availability/complexity of production.
