“Different but together“
Traditional arts and crafts are an inseparable part of Czech folklore:
Cornhusk dolls: among the most popular traditional products. These dolls made of
cornhusk and a few strings are nowadays used as decorations but in the past children
used them as toys. Cornhusk dolls are also great souvenirs tourists can buy in the Czech
Republic if they are looking for something truly traditional.
Pottery: Another popular traditional artistic product. Bohemian and Moravian pottery is
painted with various folklore patterns, simple or floral ornaments. The pottery serves
for both decorative and practical purposes.
Bobbin lace: also one of the popular traditional items. The most famous Czech bobbin
lace products are made in Vamberk, a city in Eastern Bohemia.
The Czech Republic is also renowned for its production of glass: crystal glasses, bowls,
vases, and other products contribute to the richness of heritage of the Czech Republic.
Indigo print products: hand-made textile goods. Tablecloths, toys, and other accessories
are made of this material.
The title “Bearer of the Tradition of Folk Crafts”
Since 2001, in the frames of the European Heritage Days and with the support of
Ministry of Culture, the "Bearer of the Tradition of Folk Crafts" title is awarded to
honour skills, knowledge of processes and technologies involved in traditional folk crafts.
This project is based on a project that UNESCO has called “Living Human Treasures”.
Usually, a maximum of five titles are awarded in one calendar year to citizens of the
Czech Republic who engage in one of the traditional folk crafts. The award aims to
appreciate the efforts to preserve, present them to the public and to pass traditions on to
future generations. The bearers are presented with a diploma and a monetary award. At
present, its holders include 4 dozen folk craftsmen from Bohemia and Moravia.
Cornhusk doll
Corn lady is regarded a traditional
product that comes from Slovacko
region in the Czech Republic. Corn
leaves are a traditional material,
which started spread in the 17th
century. Corn leaves were used
mainly in poor families to make
different kind of products, some of
them were sold on markets.
Waste from harvested corn cob sis
used in the production. The dried
corn leaves are soaked in warm
water with detergent. This process
makes the leaves firmer, do they
do not break during work. The
modelling of a specific doll depends
then of particular skills.
The skeleton of the figurine is
made of wire, the body begins to be
made from the head, which is filled
with cotton wool and covered with
a rustle.
The finished shapes must be
tightened very tightly with the
thread, because the wet material
will shrink after drying and the
looser bond would then be released
and the figure would fall apart.
Typical products
Indigo print products
hand-made textile goods
Blaudruck / Modrotisk / Kékfestés
/ Modrotlač, which is translated as
blueprint or blue-dyeing, refers to
the practice of printing a dye-
resistant paste onto a cloth before
it is dyed indigo. The paste
prevents the dye from penetrating
the design. To apply the designs
onto the cloth, practitioners use
hand-crafted blocks up to 300
years old, featuring regionally-
inspired patterns, generic designs
or Christian motifs.
Nowadays, the practice is mainly conducted in family-owned workshops, run by the
second to seventh generation of printers, and traditional knowledge is still based on
(mainly family-owned) journals dating back to the nineteenth century. Country(ies):
Austria; Czechia; Germany; Hungary; Slovakia. Textile printing technology blueprint
has been on the list of intangible cultural heritage of the United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) since 2018.
Blueprint is a traditional technique of textile printing and at the same time the name for
a dark blue fabric with white patterns, which is produced by this printing technique.
This is a negative print, where the fabric is printed in places that are supposed to remain
white. The printing is done with a reserve - a covering mixture, which protects the
required places from contact with the dye and which is removed after dyeing by washing.
Wooden forms are traditionally used for printing, into which the required patterns are
cut or created using embedded metal wires and sheets. Originally, domestic linen
brought by customers was used for dyeing with indigo, imported natural dye, in the
second half of the 19th century linen and cotton linen directly from factories.
From the end of the 18th century, blueprints penetrated into folk costumes, its
popularity increased mainly in the 19th century. It has become a typical material for
some areas such as Horácko or Wallachia. In the 19th century, there was a blueprinting
workshop in almost every small town, in the 20th century they began to decline, to this
day there are workshops in Olešnice and Strážnice in the Czech Republic.

Puppetry in the Czech
Republic
The joint Czech-Slovak nomination
"Puppetry in Slovakia and the
Czech Republic" was entered into
the UNESCO Representative List
of the Intangible Cultural Heritage
of Humanity on December 1, 2016.
The puppet theatre is an
inseparable part of the theatrical
tradition in Slovakia and the
Czech Republic.
This originally artificial product of
nomadic puppeteers who came to
us from abroad has become
widespread in the Czech
environment. In the Czech
environment, the puppet theatre,
as an interpretive art, is
inextricably linked with
professional and folk art (carving,
painting, puppet costumes,
painting of decorations).
Czech puppetry is a phenomenon that has existed continuously since the second half of the
18th century. Nomadic puppeteers, whose greatest distribution dates back to the 19th
century, played intensively throughout Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia and spread the Czech
language, especially in the countryside. Since the last third of the 19th century, the federal
puppet theatre has expanded, mainly due to the sports and cultural organization Sokol, and
thanks to the massive expansion of the family puppet theatre (owned by almost every
burgher family), the puppet theatre has become a folk pastime. The continuous tradition of
Czech puppet theatre is evidenced by many scenes that have existed since its foundation to
this day (e.g. the Spejbl and Hurvínek Theatre, founded in 1930). According to historical
sources, the number of puppet theatres in the 1920s and 1930s was the highest in Europe.
In the second half of the 1930s, there were more than 3,000 ensembles operated in our
country. This was greatly aided by the world's first puppet magazine, the Czech Puppeteer
(1912), which is still published today under the title Puppet.
Skupova Plzeň International Festival of Puppet and Alternative Theatre is the oldest
professional theatre festival in the Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia). The festival is a show
of Czech professional puppetry. The main program is always supplemented by a
representative sample of foreign production (4-5 performances). Traditionally, the upcoming
generation of puppetry from universities of theatre receives space here. The competition
production is judged by a domestic or international expert jury, which awards individual
prizes.
The story of puppets in our city Pilsen starts as late as in the 19th century when people in
Pilsen could enjoy theatre performances of strolling folk puppeteers who travelled with
their horses and carts through their favoured stands. At the end of the 19th century little
family theatres, combined the worlds of children and adults. The main personalities were
Josef Skupa and Jiří Trnka, whose joint work gave birth around 1930 to the probably most
famous Czech puppets – father Spejbl (Spaybul and a son Hurvínek (Hurveenek).

Bobbin lace from the town Vamberk Eastern Bohemia
The town Vamberk is a special
place for lace makers. This city
has been known for lace
production since 17th century.
It was Magdalena Grambová,
a Belgian owner of a local
estate in Vamberk, introduced
Belgian lace patterns and a
new technique of hand bobbin
lace making using a lace
cushion or pillow. It is a multi-
pair lace made of fine yarn.
Vamberk became a European centre of lace-making. At the second half of the 18th
century the lace was made nearly in each household in the town Vamberk. In year
1899 first Czech lace making school was open and it was start of Czech traditional lace.
In the school there were about 50 pupils mainly girls annually. Czech lace very soon
became known and valued all over Europe. Manufacture factory of lace was running
till so called Velvet revolution, after privatization this manufacture under new
ownership fated.
First museum of lace was established in this town 1924. In the museum is
retrospective exhibition of old Czech lacemaking to modern contemporary lace.
At present, the largest volume of orders consists of stylish jewellery with precious
stones, beads, beads and other accessories, including tie clips, scarves and shawls. The
imaginary icing on the cake is the supply of individual bobbin lace for luxury dresses.

  • 9. Indigo print products hand-made textile goods Blaudruck / Modrotisk / Kékfestés / Modrotlač, which is translated as blueprint or blue-dyeing, refers to the practice of printing a dye- resistant paste onto a cloth before it is dyed indigo.

Textile printing technology blueprint has been on the list of intangible cultural heritage of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) since 2018. Blueprint is a traditional technique of textile printing and at the same time the name for a dark blue fabric with white patterns, which is produced by this printing technique. This is a negative print, where the fabric is printed in places that are supposed to remain white. The printing is done with a reserve - a covering mixture, which protects the required places from contact with the dye and which is removed after dyeing by washing. Wooden forms are traditionally used for printing, into which the required patterns are cut or created using embedded metal wires and sheets. Originally, domestic linen brought by customers was used for dyeing with indigo, imported natural dye, in the second half of the 19th century linen and cotton linen directly from factories.

  • 12. Puppetry in the Czech Republic The joint Czech-Slovak nomination "Puppetry in Slovakia and the Czech Republic" was entered into the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity on December 1, 2016. The puppet theatre is an inseparable part of the theatrical tradition in Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
  • 13. This originally artificial product of nomadic puppeteers who came to us from abroad has become widespread in the Czech environment. In the Czech environment, the puppet theatre, as an interpretive art, is inextricably linked with professional and folk art (carving, painting, puppet costumes, painting of decorations).
  • 14. Czech puppetry is a phenomenon that has existed continuously since the second half of the 18th century. Nomadic puppeteers, whose greatest distribution dates back to the 19th century, played intensively throughout Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia and spread the Czech language, especially in the countryside. Since the last third of the 19th century, the federal puppet theatre has expanded, mainly due to the sports and cultural organization Sokol, and thanks to the massive expansion of the family puppet theatre (owned by almost every burgher family), the puppet theatre has become a folk pastime. The continuous tradition of Czech puppet theatre is evidenced by many scenes that have existed since its foundation to this day (e.g. the Spejbl and Hurvínek Theatre, founded in 1930). According to historical sources, the number of puppet theatres in the 1920s and 1930s was the highest in Europe. In the second half of the 1930s, there were more than 3,000 ensembles operated in our country. This was greatly aided by the world's first puppet magazine, the Czech Puppeteer (1912), which is still published today under the title Puppet. Skupova Plzeň International Festival of Puppet and Alternative Theatre is the oldest professional theatre festival in the Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia). The festival is a show of Czech professional puppetry. The main program is always supplemented by a representative sample of foreign production (4-5 performances). Traditionally, the upcoming generation of puppetry from universities of theatre receives space here. The competition production is judged by a domestic or international expert jury, which awards individual prizes. The story of puppets in our city Pilsen starts as late as in the 19th century when people in Pilsen could enjoy theatre performances of strolling folk puppeteers who travelled with their horses and carts through their favoured stands. At the end of the 19th century little family theatres, combined the worlds of children and adults. The main personalities were Josef Skupa and Jiří Trnka, whose joint work gave birth around 1930 to the probably most famous Czech puppets – father Spejbl (Spaybul and a son Hurvínek (Hurveenek).
