How are Sárköz beaded necklaces made? What traditions do the colorful beads preserve, and how can they become our own creations in our hands?
On October 28, we invite interested visitors to the Wosinsky Mór Museum for a program connected to our exhibition titled Hands – Heart – Spirit.
The program opens with a guided tour by Mária Decsi-Kiss, Master of Folk Art, during which we can discover the special pieces of Sárköz beaded dress and the creator's work.
This will be followed by a beadwork workshop, where under the guidance of Mária Decsi-Kiss we can gain insight into the techniques that form the basis of Sárköz beaded necklaces. We will learn to make simple, ripple, and lace beaded ribbons, which form the foundation of many variations of traditional beaded necklaces.
We also prepare simpler stringing options for children adapted to their age.
Mária Decsi-Kiss has been researching, collecting and passing on the traditions of Sárköz beadwork for decades. Preserving old patterns and passing on craft knowledge are defining aspects of her work, as witnessed by the volume "Kalárisnak mondik…" Sárköz Beadwork – in which she served as co-author.
Come, discover the world of Sárköz beads, and get to know more closely the knowledge where tradition, craftsmanship and the joy of creation meet!
Anyone can add events to the Folk Calendar. We try to check the data daily, but we cannot take responsibility for its accuracy.
