Nesting Dolls from Russia
We have all seen these beautiful Russian nesting dolls in films and magazines but neither medium can convey just how nice they are. Holding one and then opening each successive layer is almost magical. The larger pieces are so colorful while the minis that can sit on a quarter are a wonder that any artist can create on so small a scale.
We have these nesting dolls available both as sets with an accompanying book or individually.

Magic Nesting Doll with book set
This is the story of young Katya, who sets out to rescue a handsome young prince from a wicked spell. Armed with only the magic nesting doll and her own valiant heart, she is determined to succeed.
Jacqueline K. Ogburn's romantic tale combined with Laurel Long's dazzling paintings has created a modern classic that honors its folklore heritage while depicting a world in which a girl can be anything, including a heroine.
Each of the brightly colored pieces of the nesting doll are based on a character in the book, who magically come to help the brave heroine, Kataya, when she opens the nesting doll given to her by her grandmother.
Set is 4 pieces with the outside doll standing 6 inches tall.

The shapes of the pieces are different and with the largest around 4 inches they are all the more appealing.

My wife Karen fell in love with the minmat sets and had to have these eskimos for our store.
Having photographed them with a quarter to show the scale I understand her liking for miniature wonders.
