Cute women’s apron, hand-woven on a loom. Northern Ukraine, the late 19th – early 20th century. The color is great, though it might have been a brighter red 100 years ago.

Bright red apron from Zakarpattia region (the very western area of Ukraine), the early 20th century. This apron is embellished with beading, embroidered ribbons sewn to the apron, lace at the bottom, and other decorations.

Vintage folk aprons from central Ukraine, the late 19th – early 20th century. They have a similar rectangular design and are adorned with embroidery and simple trimmings. Costly aprons were made from velvet or trimmed with velvet.
