A distinctive feature of Ukrainian ornamentation is the use of traditional patterns and motifs often found in textiles, embroidery, pottery and wood carving. These motifs, such as the 'vyshyvanka' (embroidery) and the 'pysanka' (decorated Easter eggs), have deep roots in Ukrainian history and often symbolize spiritual beliefs, happiness, fertility and protection.
