Description:

This still life painted in the Russian style is a creation the husband and wife duet, Ilyin Nikolay and Ilyina Irina. Here they depict two attributes of the traditional Russian tea drinking - samovar and bubliki (Russian traditional pastry). Mother-of-pearl is set into the middle part of the composition, and shines through the table-cloth. Gold paint is used to depict the samovar and create its metallic luster. At the background the artist has painted the curtains to produce an illusion that the samovar stands on the table near the window.
The box's exterior is decorated with an attractive gold skan pattern composed of tiny gold shapes punched from gold metal sheets and then painstakingly affixed by hand to the box.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. The lid is hinged from the left of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the names of the artists, Fedoskino and the year of 2005.
