Krestetskaya line is a unique type of Russian folk through embroidery. Lightness and grace of the finest threads, among which intricate rosettes, stars, round multi-petaled flowers swirl in a cheerful roundabout.
Large forms are always surrounded by a scattering of small “spiders”, rims that make up a single decorative pattern. One such snow-white ornament is associated with the lush flowering of spring nature, the other resembles transparent winter glass, colored with frosty patterns. Such an unusual ornament, not found in other traditional centers of Russian folk embroidery, began to form in the Krestetsk Territory of the Novgorod province at the turn of two centuries. Clear geometric patterns, complex intricate drawings, prompted by nature itself, distinguish the sacral line.
