Cat-Brushes
A traditional Ukrainian instrument for Petrykivka painting — made from soft natural fur to create strokes no synthetic brush can replicate.
A traditional tool for living Ukrainian ornament
Cat brushes are an essential instrument in Petrykivka painting, the Ukrainian decorative art known for its fluid florals, birds, and expressive rhythm.
Made from soft natural fur, these brushes allow artists to create the signature strokes that cannot be achieved with synthetic tools.
