sagedusribast

Sagedusribast, also known as the Elderly Ribbon, is a traditional Estonian ribbon worn by elderly individuals to symbolize their age and experience. The ribbon is typically made of silk or satin and is worn around the neck, often with a small medal or pin attached to it. The color of the ribbon can vary, but it is most commonly red, which is associated with the Estonian flag and represents the blood of the Estonian people.

The Elderly Ribbon is a symbol of respect and admiration for the elderly, who are highly valued in Estonian culture. It is a way to acknowledge their wisdom, experience, and contributions to society. The ribbon is often presented by the community or by the individual's family and friends as a token of appreciation for their service and dedication.

The tradition of the Elderly Ribbon dates back to the early 20th century, when it was introduced as a way to honor the elderly and encourage them to continue to contribute to their communities. Over time, the ribbon has become an important part of Estonian culture and is widely recognized as a symbol of respect and admiration for the elderly.

In recent years, the Elderly Ribbon has also gained international recognition, with Estonian embassies and cultural organizations promoting the tradition abroad. The ribbon is seen as a way to preserve and promote Estonian culture and values, and to foster a sense of community and belonging among the elderly.
