COLLABORATION

BLACKWOOD Atelier × RUDA Studio

ANIMA was born at the intersection of two worlds — the artisanal accessories of BLACKWOOD Atelier and the object design of RUDA Studio.

BLACKWOOD’s signature wooden panels became a canvas for RUDA Studio’s meticulous straw marquetry. Natural materials and handcraft became the shared language of the two brands.

At the heart of the ANIMA collection are three female figures from Ukrainian folklore:

Three spirits of nature embody the earthly, subterranean-water, and celestial realms — and the distinct states of a woman’s inner nature.

COLLECTIBLE BOX ANIMA

The collection culminates in an interior art piece that unites Mavka, Vodianytsia, and Povitrulia where their elements and realms meet.<br>

Three female spirits converge in a single art object — a symbol of unity, inner support, and the power of sisterhood.

THE REFINED ART OF STRAW MARQUETRY

The art of straw marquetry transforms the texture of wood into a living play of light. Rye stems undergo bespoke tinting before being delicately flattened and calibrated entirely by hand.

Each element of the pattern is laid individually to compose a singular visual narrative. This meticulous process imbues the piece with lasting meaning, turning it into a family heirloom for your most cherished memories.

Each piece has an individual number. This collection will not be repeated.
