Ukrainian vintage hand-woven women’s belt. Western Ukraine, the early 20th century. It is adorned with a beautiful woven pattern. And as you see, this belt is rather long – it goes around the waist 2 times and the ends hang to the knees.

Vintage women's hand-woven belt called "kraika". Such belts were typical for western part of Ukraine, but today they are used in every region of the country. This one has cute tassels at the ends.

Vintage hand-woven belt from Central Ukraine, Cherkasy region, the late 19th – early 20th century. The belt has lovely woven roses that used to be brighter but the colors got a bit faded with time. Still, they’re pretty)). From a folk museum collection.
