Just like the doll Katya's grandmother gives her in the book, "The Magic Nesting Doll." Open this set and let its charms work for you! See item #9390048 to purchase the doll and book together. About the book: This charming fairy tale casts Sleeping Beauty in reverse: the girl saves the guy, but only with the help of a matryoshka that hides a bear, wolf, and fire bird within. Exquisite illustrations with a Russian flavor make this one popular with adults as well as pre-teens. The companion doll facilitates fabulous reenactments.
Production Techniques: Hand Painting. This doll was carved in the Upper Volga region, then delivered to a workshop in St. Petersburg , Russia . The artists first hand paint the background, then apply various detailed elements, such as faces, 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 they 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 the “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.
