Romanian Crafts
HISTORY
Timeless Objects
A legacy of a way of life that still exists in certain villages, Romania's rural heritage retains all its vitality, as illustrated by the great diversity of artisanal crafts: ceramics, basketry, weaving, egg painting, metalwork, and embroidery.
We have gathered a selection of everyday objects from Romanian folklore that are made using traditional methods: Hungarian embroidered cushions called Kalotaszeg, always monochrome, featuring traditional patterns and goose eggs decorated with colored wax, beaded belts or hand-embroidered blouses.
Each object is an invitation to discover the Romanian art of living and to celebrate the heritage of a living and creative craft.
