If the husband could not afford such material, then he used birch, alder. In this way, the husband demonstrated his abilities, and also showed that this anniversary of joint life is important for him.
2. After that, his wife was required to cover the thing her husband made with a brilliant lacquer. It was a symbol of the fact that there is a relationship between the spouses.
