Gunia Project x GUZEMA
NEZALEZHNA is a collection created by women and dedicated to modern Ukrainian women. Conceived for the 30th anniversary of Ukraine’s independence, it is a creative manifestation of the dream to see Ukrainian women free and strong, capable of claiming both personal and social freedom.
“This is the kind of heroine who inspires our team and us personally, so we’ve made it our mission to support women,” say GUNIA Project founders Nataliia Kamenska and Mariia Havryliuk.
A distinctive element of the joint collection is a flower motif found on 19th- and 20th-century embroidered rushnyky from across Ukraine. The simplicity of the form highlights the symbolic depth of the collection, which offers a contemporary interpretation of traditional Ukrainian culture.
“GUNIA Project is the only Ukrainian brand to produce such a broad range, from ceramics and blown glass to textiles, all aligned with our shared identity,” says Valeria Guzema, founder and creative director of Guzema Fine Jewelry. “The collection is pure and meaningful. Every element carries historical depth.”
