The Aurora multi-market chain, in collaboration with the Ukraine WOW project and the Chernihiv Historical Museum, has announced the launch of a unique initiative — now everyone has the opportunity to pre-order a toy saber of Ivan Mazepa. This saber is an exact replica of the legendary weapon that became a symbol of victory. It is the same saber that boxer Oleksandr Usyk raised after his victorious fight against Tyson Fury.
The collaborators claim that the toy saber is not just a children's toy but a representation of the spirit and determination that embody Ukrainian history and culture. The historical prototype of this weapon is kept in the Chernihiv Historical Museum.
The wooden toy sabers are produced by the Kharkiv-based company Suvenir-Dekor, which, despite all challenges, continues to operate in difficult wartime conditions.
100% of the profits from the saber sales will be donated to the Chernihiv Historical Museum for the development of the institution and preservation of its collection.
