Dear friends, as you know, a war has broken out in Ukraine. At the time the war started, on February 24, we had almost finished production of the wooden version of the rings and received the parts for the plastic version in the port. And now our production is completely blocked in the city of Irpin along with parts and magnets. Fortunately, our employees evacuated from there, except those who stayed to fight with the rest of the armed forces, such as our workshop foreman Roman and his colleague Pavel. Roman recently received several shrapnel wounds, but thank God the injuries were not critical and the doctors helped him. 6 people from our team worked at this production: 2 ladies were evacuated, 2 men joined the army, 2 men are volunteering. Irpin, a town near Kyiv, is one of the most affected suburbs. There was even an idea to go there and pick up the parts, but the bridges were blown up and the roads were shot through. It was a miracle that we managed to evacuate civilians who were still there. As you know from the news and numerous photos, Russian troops are destroying residential neighborhoods in those cities that have been seized. So for now, it's totally impossible for us to pick up those parts. We have also asked for help in relocating the production to Polish and American foundations, but so far there has been no affirmative response. But that does not mean we will not fulfil our Kickstarter plans. As soon as these cities near Kyiv are liberated, we will resume our production and continue our work. Even if it is affected and we don't get our parts, we will find a way to purchase new ones and meet our commitments.
We are really grateful for your support. We know now how valuable peace and prosperity are. Appreciate your countries and your freedom!

P. S. We also want to support the project of our Ukrainian friends, who launched their Anti-War Art Book Kickstarter during the war:
