The Christmas is not just a moment on the calendar — it is a quiet reset, an opportunity to choose things that bring meaning rather than excess. In an age dominated by fast décor and disposable trends, a handcrafted design object becomes an anchor of sincerity.Objects by Victoria Yakusha carry a unique spirit: they are born from natural textures, ancient forms, earthy palettes, and a philosophy where design is alive — it breathes, it holds memory, it grows with the home.Below are five interior gifts that embody this philosophy, each one a living presence, a sculptural gesture, and a thoughtful expression of care.

1. Wall Art — A Portal Into Atmosphere, Texture, and Emotional Stillness

Wall art in Yakusha’s world is not a decorative layer — it is a gateway to atmosphere.

Each piece, whether textured, tactile, or gracefully minimal, creates a point of emotional gravity. Instead of overpowering the room, it reframes it: adding a sense of stillness, pause, and intentionality.

Why it’s a meaningful gift:

  • It changes how a space feels. Yakusha’s art works through silence rather than noise. It infuses a room with calm, rather than filling it.
  • It suits any interior. Because it draws from natural tones and raw texture, it integrates seamlessly into minimalist, contemporary, Scandinavian or Japandi-style interiors.
  • It creates connection. A thoughtfully chosen piece of art becomes a long-term emotional reference point — a place where the eye rests, and the mind slows down.
  • It is timeless. These works are free from trends and mass aesthetics; they age beautifully.

This is a gift for someone who appreciates the quiet luxury of natural materials and the emotional resonance of handcrafted work.

2. Holiday Edition — Limited Pieces Imbued with Ritual, Warmth, and Story

The Holiday Edition collection expresses the essence of winter traditions through contemporary design. These objects are not “festive” in the commercial sense — they are ceremonial, subtle, and deeply atmospheric.

Crafted in limited quantities, each piece feels like a small ritual: something to gather around, to light, to touch, to return to year after year.

Why it’s a meaningful gift:

  • It holds emotional warmth. These pieces capture the softness and intimacy of winter evenings.
  • It honors ritual. Every object feels like a modern heirloom — something one keeps, not replaces.
  • It is rare and personal. A limited-edition object makes the gift feel intentional and intimate.
  • It complements any home. Neutral, grounded aesthetics allow the pieces to blend into diverse interiors without dominating them.

This is a perfect gift for those who value presence, tradition, and winter’s quiet magic — without cliché.

3. Kumanec Vase Set — Sculptural Forms that Echo Ancestral Roots and Natural Balance

The Kumanec vase set is rooted in an ancient Slavic vessel symbolizing fullness, harmony, and protection.

Yakusha Studio reinterprets this historic form into a sculptural, contemporary object that holds the essence of earth, craft, and cultural memory.

These vases work both as functional pieces and as standalone sculptures. Their organic curves and raw textures feel almost archeological — as if discovered rather than created.

Why it’s a meaningful gift:

  • It carries cultural depth. The Kumanec shape holds centuries of symbolism; gifting it is like offering a small piece of heritage.
  • It fits many roles. It can hold a single wildflower branch… or stand empty as a statement sculpture.
  • It brings nature indoors. Clay-like textures and earthy tones reconnect the space with the natural world.
  • It adds sculptural character. The set introduces a quiet accent, a tactile presence that elevates even the simplest room.

This is the gift for someone who values authenticity, symbolism, and the poetry of traditional forms transfigured for modern life.

4. Strikha Table Lamp — Architectural Light Rooted in Tradition

The Strikha lamp translates the silhouette of a traditional thatched Ukrainian roof into a minimalist design object.

It combines architecture, memory, and soft illumination into a single sculptural piece.

The lamp’s presence is calm yet expressive. It belongs to interiors that value atmosphere — not harsh brightness, but gentle, grounding light that shapes the mood of a room.

Why it’s a meaningful gift:

  • It is functional and deeply symbolic. It carries the warmth, protection, and simplicity of the archetypal home.
  • It creates atmosphere. Its lighting is soft, diffused and intimate — ideal for evening rituals, reading, or unwinding.
  • It is a minimal sculpture. Even when turned off, it serves as an architectural accent in the room.
  • It bridges past and present. The design honors heritage while fitting seamlessly into contemporary interiors.

This gift is perfect for someone who values meaningful symbols, sensory comfort, and thoughtful ambient lighting.

5. Soniah Table Lamp — A Sculptural Tribute to Light, Life, and Resilience

Soniah — inspired by the sunflower — is one of the most iconic objects of Yakusha’s universe.

It embodies resilience, warmth, optimism, and connection to land. As a lighting object, it feels both poetic and powerful.

The Soniah lamp is not merely a source of light — it is a symbolic presence, a sculptural reminder of life’s endurance and beauty.

Why it’s a meaningful gift:

  • It radiates emotional warmth. The sunflower form embodies hope, stability, and grounded strength.
  • It becomes the focal point of a room. The lamp’s silhouette is striking yet natural — it instantly draws the eye.
  • It offers soft, living light. The illumination is gentle, creating a peaceful, nurturing mood.
  • It’s both art and function. A piece like this is as suitable for a collector as it is for someone creating a serene home.

This is the gift for someone who appreciates expressive, symbolic design and sees interiors as emotional landscapes.

Why These Gifts Truly Matter

These gifts matter because they bring more than aesthetics — they bring presence, atmosphere and meaning. In a world of fast décor and short-lived trends, a handcrafted interior object becomes something lasting: a piece that grows with the home, not fades from it. Yakusha designs hold the warmth of natural materials, the clarity of minimal form and the quiet energy of heritage.

Choosing such a gift means choosing depth over excess, intention over impulse, and sincerity over mass-production. These objects create emotional anchors in the home: a soft light that calms, a sculptural form that grounds, a tactile surface that reconnects you to nature. They feel personal because they are — made thoughtfully, shaped by hand, and rooted in culture.

In simple terms, these gifts matter because they offer:

  • Longevity: timeless design that stays relevant.
  • Emotional value: an object that carries warmth and presence.
  • Authenticity: natural materials and honest craftsmanship.
  • Atmosphere: a calmer, more grounded home environment.

These pieces become part of daily life — quietly, naturally, and for years. That’s what makes them meaningful gifts.
