Bouquet Symbol
More modern modifications of the tree of life are bouquets of flowers, especially bouquets in a vase. This is perhaps the most common rushnyk type in the area where the collection was made. Recent innovations include the use of synthetic embroidery threads which produce rushnyky in vibrant colors.
The vase is probably some sort of intermediary between the tree of life and the bouquet and it is not considered a motif in its own right in the glossary below. It may become a separate motif with time.
