Very beautiful photographs! Are they from somewhere in Transylvania, possibly Harghita or Covasna counties (or even Mureș)? Just asking. All the best, thank you for writing and sharing this post, and plenty of success here on HIVE!

Thank you @vikthor. These crafters were from all over Transylvania, Hungary and there was a couple from Kazakhstan as well. I don't know how they got there or why, but was glad to see them.
Thanks for the wishes, I wish you the same and have a nice weekend :)
Thank you for the clarification! I was just curious, considering the text in the photographs in Hungarian. Hungarians in Romania have very beautiful traditional art and clothing (and their traditional cuisine is quite tasty as well - I am talking mainly from personal experience). While we are at traditional Hungarian cuisine, did you know that the delicious Kürtőskalács came to Transylvania via the Transylvanian Saxons? The Saxons have a variant of it called Baumstriezel. You can read more about the traditional cuisine of the Transylvanian Saxons here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transylvanian_Saxon_cuisine (the article was written by me).
On the photographs, to get back on topic, these were very beautiful items. Hand made items are, in general, very beautiful and created through a lot of creativity and hard work. These are very good reasons to support these craftsmen and traders. Best regards from Suceava!
P.S.: Your posts are always very beautiful and I am very grateful for checking them! In addition, it is very nice to see as many Romanian authors here on HIVE as possible! Much respect and all the best! 🙂
Thank you @vikthor, I know quite a lot about Hungarians in Transylvania s I'm one of them 😁 and about Saxons too as I have Saxon roots as well. However, thanks for the info and the nice comment. Have a nice day and see you around :)
Oh, I see, very interesting! I have Transylvanian Saxon roots as well, as I mentioned before. I also know a bit of Hungarian. It is a very interesting and melodic language. I truly think Romanians and Hungarians can get along very well and I know for certain there has been a lot of social, ethnic, economic, and religious understanding and common living between Romanians, Hungarians, and Saxons in Transylvania. As a native of Bukovina, I know very well at a smaller scale how it is to live in a multicultural region. I take it as a blessing and I am very grateful for it! All the best and plenty of success! 🙂
P.S.: Nagyon köszönöm!
