Abstract

The article considers the period of formation and flourishing of the Kazakh jewelry school. The main material for studying is women's jewelry. The classification of jewelry is given on the example of objects of museum collections of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation and includes complexes of products for the head, neck-chest, waist and hand jewelry. The semantic meaning of both individual manufacturing materials and independent products is noted. The influence of pre-Islamic beliefs and the Islamic religion is also considered semantically. Special attention is paid to the local features of jewelry and the cultural influence exerted by neighboring nations. The main techniques, material and ornamentation, and the identification of the magico-religious function as the dominant one are considered. The methodological basis of the article is culturological and semiotic approaches, as well as methods of comparative analysis and historical analysis. Keywords: jewelry art, kazakhs, semantics, amulet, ethnographic collections, museum
