Beaded sylianka СЛ13

A beaded sylianka — a traditional handmade Ukrainian neck ornament. The piece is carefully woven by hand in quality fine, choice beads. The geometric ornament is formed of clear, striking diamond shapes. The striking pattern makes the sylianka bright, smart and festive. Every sylianka is made entirely by hand, so each one has a beaded pattern unlike any other.

The sylianka is an old neck ornament that has always gone with the Ukrainian national costume. It naturally completes a vyshyvanka and finishes a festive, formal women’s look. Beadwork carries on the folk tradition passed down from one generation to the next. The handwork makes the ethnic look whole, authentic and complete. An ornament like this will be a real adornment at photo sessions, family celebrations and formal occasions.
