Ryasna

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kolts haning on ryasnas found in Nizovka, Chernihiv Oblast. 12th century

Ryasna (Russian: рясна) was a part of a woman’s headgear, hanging from a diadem or as a temporal pendant.[1]

It was a sign of family's prosperity common in the 11th–13th centuries in Kievan Rus’, made in the shape of a chain linking golden, silver or copper pieces, medallions, used as a suspension for a kolt or a similar pendant.

Design

Ryasnas in Rus' were designed to hang down from each side of the kokoshnik, reaching the woman's shoulders with the kolt reaching her chest. The design was in the form of a rain chain and the imagery portrayed always had the same theme: sky and fertile agriculture.[2]
