Patrons in villages in Bereg used to be of noble families. They helped communities in their region, helped them to survive and also patronised talented young men.

One of the traditional fancyworks of the Tiszahát people living in Bereg is the mourning funeral fancywork. When trousseaus were prepared for young girls, mourning tablecloths, mourning covers for mirrors and bier covers were already included in it. These textiles were mostly embroidered with black thread. However, the motifs were the usual ones, those that were applied on most of the textiles used on a daily basis.
