New Year tree of the Ryazan region: Venetian luxury from Kadom lacemakers
The decoration of the fir tree is made in the most delicate white colors - the emphasis is on the luxurious products of Veniz Lace.
This unique ancient craft is displayed not only on regular balls, but also as balloons with lace baskets.
Veniz comes from the word "Venice." According to the legend, Peter the Great, who wanted the Russian nobility to wear clothes with lace, ordered Venetian lacemakers to come to the convent of Kadom and teach the nuns their art.
Based on Venetian lace, Kadom needlewomen created their own version, called "veniz". Unlike lace, it is made with a needle and thread and has a base of fabric.
On the Main Alley of VDNH visitors are greeted by 89 New Year trees, each of them representing a region of the country.
