TURKMEN NATIONAL JEWELRY

The ancient history, rich culture and national heritage of the Turkmen people are reflected not only in folklore, but also in jewelry used in everyday life. National jewelry not only enhances the beauty of Turkmen women, but also indicates their dignity, age and position in life. The history of Turkmen jewelry goes back millennia. Jewelry decorated with silver, gold and precious stones found during archaeological excavations proves that our people had a high level of jewelry art even in ancient times. Each piece of jewelry is not only an ornament, but also means protection, happiness, and the strength of the continuation of the family. Today, national jewelry is an important part of the cultural heritage of our people and is widely used at weddings, holidays and national traditions. Also, modern versions of them have been created today and have become part of the daily jewelry of young people. National jewelry is an integral part of the spiritual world of the Turkmen people, their attitude to beauty and their historical and cultural heritage. They not only adorn women, but also keep alive the centuries-old traditions, beliefs, and creativity of our people.
