The decoration of the New Year tree of the Republic of Khakassia emphasizes ethnic motifs, which can be traced in the processing of leather, wood, metal and other materials.

Especially for the Christmas tree at VDNH, the region's craftsmen made large solar gold and silver signs. The decoration is complemented by a stylized ornament - Pogo - a traditional breast ornament made in the technique of beadwork.

The purpose of the pogo is associated with an important event in a person's life - marriage, creation of a family. Usually, women embroidered pogo to their daughters before the wedding. But sometimes the pogo was made after the wedding by a husband for his wife.
