Casket, Mstera "tsarevna Swan", lacquer, hand-painted, Russia.

A unique work of Russian masters of the late XVIII century. Externally, it is a small lacquered papier-mache box with a lid, which the artist paints with oil paints in several layers. A special feature of this box is-lacquer miniature painting, which fascinates with its truly intoxicating beauty and naturalness.

Painted lacquer boxes that store stories of fairy tales and ballads, three-dimensional landscapes and amazing ornaments created by hand by folk craftsmen of the Vladimir region, have been known for several centuries not only to domestic connoisseurs of beauty, but also to any foreign collector. Buy a box of mster and become the owner of a unique handmade souvenir, often surpassing in beauty and matryoshkas and Zhostovo and Gzhel and Khokhloma - the dream of everyone whose eyes at least once in their life glided over the shiny lacquer lid of the box and caught, remained in the depth of the beautiful drawing forever.

In good vintage condition.
