In the fir trees of the Tyumen region the emphasis is placed on the elements of wooden architecture - platbands, as well as on the products of the die-cutting craft - in the New Year decoration the real chimneys of a hereditary craftsman - openwork endings of stove pipes - are used.

The die-cutting technique in metal processing has long been used to decorate cup holders, lamps and other household utensils, as well as weathervanes, drainpipe tops, chimneys (stovepipe caps), signboards. Cut metal is often combined with elements of bent wire, as well as forged metal usually used as brackets, frames.
