Shirt “Chernihivska”

Men’s linen embroidered shirt with collar.

The ornament is floral and geometric, wavy branches (‘lamane hil’tse’) motif.

In the folk tradition, shirts "embroidered with oak" were common - the embroidery thread was dyed in a decoction of oak bark.

An interesting technique is the punch needle one, known as "nightingale eyes", when it is used to make the entire element of the ornament.
