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.
Your eyes aren't playing tricks as the mini Madonna set os sitting on a quarter to give you an idea of the scale. Small indeed !!
This adorable, small nesting doll is brightly and deftly painted with a wonderful floral pattern on each doll.
Largest piece is only 3 inches high

This set of five nesting dolls shows the story of Morozko (Father Winter) and is the story of a girl who is sent out into the cold by her stepmother. The girl gets a visit from Old Man Winter, who bestows upon her warm furs and other gifts.
A nicely painted set of five nesting dolls decorated with girls and their cats.
I particularly like the youngest whose cat has fallen asleep.
