Russian Banya Matryoshka – Artist Signed – 7 Nested Set
NZ$899.00
Available, delivery time: 1-3 days
This exceptional seven-piece matryoshka set depicts a classic Russian banya (sauna) scene with warmth, humour and remarkable painterly detail. The largest doll shows a blonde mother bathing a young child in a wooden tub, the middle figure a rotund, moustached bather clutching his wash bucket, and the third a cheerful girl with her own pail - each painted with expressive faces and a wonderfully comic character that brings the scene to life.
Hand-painted and signed on the base by the artist, this is a genuine artist piece rather than a production souvenir. A rare and distinctive find for collectors of Russian folk art or anyone who appreciates storytelling through craft.
This matryoshka is a seven nested set.
Handmade in Russia
