This lovable set of Matryoshka nesting dolls is sure to melt the viewer’s heart and grab one’s attention immediately and for long.

Each Matryoshka nesting doll features a charming Russian girl, dressed in her traditional garments: scarlet “yapancha” jacket, cornflower blue skirt and snow-white chemise. The combination of these colors is very typical for a conventional Russian lady’s costume and is therefore often depicted on Matryoshka nesting dolls. Nevertheless the artist managed to choose the hues and shadows of those colors that please one’s eyes and make this set of Matryoshka nesting dolls even more attractive.

Each Matryoshka nesting doll can boast a unique head kerchief, with a still prettier festive kokoshknik, decorated with sapphire beads. The kerchief itself, painted in different shades of crimson, pink, and maroon-red is the pride of the Matryoshka nesting dolls, and a delight to look at.

But the most gratifying impression is left by the foxy cat with a whitish bosom, painted on each Matryoshka nesting doll. This kitten symbolizes the gentleness, caress, and affection that all young girls are full of. The girl on the Matryoshka nesting doll looks at the world with her large sky-blue eyes rimmed with long black lashes and one cannot help admiring her.

This set of Matryoshka nesting dolls was personally selected from the artists that we have worked with for many years and it will make a most precious St. Valentine’s or Birthday gift for someone very special, and will appeal to the eyes of the most sophisticated connoisseurs or Russian artwork.
