The article is devoted to the results of studying flask-like perforations of Bayanovskiy burial ground excavations. These are metal products in the form of a hollow and filled with organic materials (leather, felt) flattened bottle in the form of a rectangle or an elongated trapezoid. These artifacts were hair ornaments in women’s medieval costume, but also performed a utilitarian function. They served as cases for needles. The technique of making them is different. There are composite and there are cast from metal. The ornament on the jewelry is presented in the form of a lattice formed by rhombuses and triangles. Individual products have a simple ornament on the edges. These products with low beads served as a fake braid. They were used constantly; they were often repaired. This shows their importance for people's lives in the past.
