These silver head ornaments would have been worn by Buryat Mongol women once they married. The head ring is made of 3cm silver strips, lined with cloth, and decorated with ornamental engravings. The hair pin is about 40 cm long, held together by silver braids decorated with coral inlays. The head ring would be worn first, then the hair pin would be afixed to both sides held in place by the woman's braids.
