Abstract

The article focuses on fabric objects executed in traditional technique and hand made by women. Some of them have maintained their relevance up to the present day, while others have lost value and have fallen out of everyday use. Why? How important is ritual in the lives of these objects, and generally in the preservation and development of women’s art of creating fabric? The article examines the case of use of textiles in death commemoration rituals in the Bryansk region and particularly the role of women in carrying those out.
