Lacquer Box "Frosty Night"

Product Number: AB100-073

Product Description:
A unique box that shows the accurate reality of Fedoskono!

Fedoskino boxes are relatively easy to distinguish from other three styles of lacquer miniature. The artists of the Fedoskino village paint very realistic scenes. Fedoskino artists specialize primarily on the accuracy and reality illustrated in the paintings. The most common Fedoskino themes are realistic portraits of people, animals, architecture or realistic landscapes. Unlike the Palekh, Mstera and Kholuy style artists, Fedoskino artists use oil paint for their miniature art. Several coats of paint and lacquer are applied before work on a project is complete. It is very common to see Fedoskino boxes with inlaid pieces of mother-of-pearl or gold leaf. The gold leaf or mother-of-pearl accents create sparkly 3D effects that make the boxes seem even more realistic. The exterior of Fedoskino boxes are usually black, their interior, however, is either red or dark red. A box like this one that is displayed can take between 2 – 4 months to finish. Many collectors travel to Moscow and the surrounding areas just to purchase these boxes firsthand. We travel to Russia often to handpick only the absolute highest quality boxes for our customers. Signed by the artist “Budabtchin".
