The region’s spruce is decorated with the products of craftsmen from different parts of the republic. These are traditional vessels shaped like rams, horns for raising toasts, ritual beer bowls — it is customary for Ossetians to welcome all honorable guests coming to the republic with such a glass filled with frothy drink.

There are also exact copies of products from excavations, which are kept in the National Museum of Alania, such as dove-shaped vessels, characters of the Nart epic of the peoples of the North Caucasus.
