I have been actively dealing with Ukrainian stamps for more than 20 years. Buying from me you are guaranteed to receive impeccable quality and internal satisfaction from the transaction. This is evidenced by the numerous reviews of my happy customers. The art of cutting ornaments, various patterns, figures and scenes out of paper has been known in Ukraine since the seventeenth century. In the nineteenth century, vytynanky (paper-cuts) became an integral part of Ukrainian folk culture and life. They decorate houses, churches, public buildings and are widely used as amulets and gifts. Vytynanka “Carol” (2019, 2024) by the Honored Artist of Ukraine Nataliia Aksenenko, which is reproduced in the Christmas issue of Ukrposhta, tells about the tradition of the holiday: the girls with the Star of Bethlehem sing carols, glorifying Jesus Christ, the Three Magi bring gifts to the Newborn Child of God - gold, frankincense and myrrh, the costumed “goat” (a character of the Christmas nativity play) is driven from house to house, wishing the owners a bountiful harvest and prosperity, and Ukrainian soldiers meanwhile defend our freedom and independence, our holidays and traditions, and fight for peace for Ukraine. The name of the postal issue is the words from the most famous Ukrainian carol, “Nova radist stala” (New Joy Has Come), as this festive song has been uniting Ukraine for hundreds of years. After decades of Soviet bans, the carol was performed publicly in Kyiv's St. Sophia Square in 1991. In my country there is a cruel bloody war with the Russian invaders. Many peaceful civilians have already suffered: they died, were injured or lost their homes, as a result of shelling and bombing of residential buildings. Many people leave their homes, their loved ones and go to safe places. The enemy has not yet arrived in Zaporozhye. I stay at home and do my best to help my people in this unequal and bloody struggle. I thank everyone who is not indifferent to our misfortune. I am grateful to all my customers for helping Ukraine. Together with you, we provided significant assistance to the wounded and the needy. I continue my volunteer activities as long as I have the opportunity. Huge thanks to all! Glory to Ukraine!
