What is Pirot 
I adore ornaments from my homeland, which I enjoy painting and incorporating into my jewelry. Pirot's ornaments are indeed special ones, and you can often see them in my work. Each ornament has a different meaning and story behind it.
The Pirot kilim is often referred to as one of the national symbols of Serbia.
Pirot kilims have 122 ornaments and they are one of the most important traditional handicrafts in Serbia.
