 Shanyrak Pins and Pendants. This beautiful sterling silver pin or pendant is designed after the logo of our Aul: the Shanyrak (pronounced Shan-RAK). Cast from the original hand crafted design created by professional jewelry designer Kathy Tackabury, an Aul member and proud mom of Diana Aisulu (a.2002 from Kostanai). The pins and pendants are exquisitely detailed, they lay flat when worn yet the Shanyrak itself is slightly raised as it curves outward in the genuine manner of a real Shanyrak. 1 and 1/2" in diameter. A truly special and unique Kazakh-themed gift! Many thanks to Kathy Tackabury for her wonderful design that she has donated to our Aul. When ordering, please specify whether you want a pin or a pendant. Cost is $125.00 each, which includes shipping and 18" sterling silver chain for pendants.
Information about Shanyraks: The Shanyrak is the top and center of a yurt. It functions as a ventilation system and skylight; however, it is rich with symbolism for Kazakhs and indeed, the Shanyrak is one of the most important symbols of Kazakh culture. It crowns the yurt and represents the sun and the sky, powerful influences for the ancient nomads. Pictured to the right is a photograph of our Aul's Shanyrak, at the top of our authentic Kazakh yurt. For more information about the cultural significance of the Shanyrak and the Kazakh yurt, please click here to download an article written by the Aul's own Daniyar Baidaralin and Susan Saxon.
