Ribbon necklace "Marichka"

“Marichka” Ribbon Beaded Herdan in Red, Black and White

Vivid red defines the character of the ornament, while black details add graphic contrast and white beads brighten the composition. Symmetrical motifs with angular lines and diamond-shaped elements repeat across the woven band, creating a bold rhythmic pattern. The herdan is handwoven according to a pattern from the collection of Yurii Shumovskyi.

For those looking to buy a handmade Ukrainian ribbon beaded herdan with a distinctive colour palette, “Marichka” makes an expressive accent for both traditional and contemporary outfits. The 3 cm wide woven section sits close to the neck, creating the elegant silhouette of a handcrafted beaded choker.

Contrasting Beadwork with Vivid Red Motifs

The composition is built around repeating red elements set against a detailed black-and-white background. Small diamonds, angular lines and symmetrical colour transitions create a rich ornamental rhythm throughout the woven section.

Black beads define the contours and give the pattern additional depth, while white details make the red motifs appear even more vivid. Fine Czech Preciosa seed beads allow the intricate lines to remain crisp and clearly visible within the compact 3 cm width.

How to Style the “Marichka” Ribbon Herdan

The red, black and white palette pairs naturally with a Ukrainian vyshyvanka or white linen blouse. Its narrow silhouette leaves embroidered details on the garment visible while drawing attention to the neckline.

For contemporary styling, wear “Marichka” as a beaded choker with a crisp white shirt, black blazer, minimalist dress or monochrome top. Against simple clothing, the contrasting beadwork becomes the central accent of the look.

The long ties make the fit adjustable, allowing the ribbon herdan to sit closely around the neck or slightly looser depending on your preferred styling.
