Description
 
A perfect Easter gift.  Jan Brett's Easter book and a 5 piece hand painted matrushka doll with rabbits each holding a different decorated pisanka.
Book synopsis below.   Warning  - This doll is not for children under 4 due to the small parts which present a choking hazzard if swallowed.
It's Spring!
Time for rabbits to decorate eggs for the Easter Rabbit.  This year Hoppi is old enough to join in, and if he can just make the winning egg, he will be the one to help the Easter Rabbit on Easter.  But Hoppi hasn't decided what kind of egg to make.   And as he hops along and sees one fantastic egg after another, he begins to wonder how he can compete.
    Hoppi goes into the woods to think about his egg, and just when he figures out that he only has to make the best egg he can, his plans take a most unexpected turn.
    Jan Brett's lovable bunny hero and her remarkable Easter Rabbit will enchant readers as the pore over exquisite illustrations filled with dazzling eggs and their gifted makers - Flora Bunny, Aunt Sassyfrass, Hans Vanderabbit and others.
    An unforgettable Easter story for all ages!

Production Techniques: Hand Painting/ Decoupage. This doll was carved in the Upper Volga region, then delivered to the Golden Cockerel workshop in St. Petersburg, Russia. Our artists first hand paint the background, then apply various detailed elements, such as Easter eggs, which we print on a very thin vinyl adhesive. Such elements are reproduced original works of art we make specifically for nesting doll design. It is the artist’s magic brush that blends the two forms of artwork together into a unified piece. Finally we baptize each doll in multiple layers of non-toxic water-based lacquer to make a marvelous matryoshka that will delight children and collectors. The bottom of the largest doll gets stamped with Golden Cockerel’s “Made in Russia” mark of quality, initialed by the artist, and dated like a true collectible. We can only hope you will give it a good home.
