Description:

This genuinely elegant piece was created by Fedoskino master, Olga Borisova. A flawless palette of color, precise attention to detail and unique decoration all contribute to this piece making it a sincere portrait of Russian lacquer artistry.
The box's lid glows radiantly been inlaid with pieces of mother-of-pearl of different shape and color. In the center of the box the artist has painted the portrait of a dreamy Russian peasant girl on the oval, white piece of mother-of-pearl. The portrait is painted in oils and detailed with gold powder. Gold metal band is used to frame the portrait. The rest part of the lid's exterior is inlaid with pieces of white and blue mother-of-pearl that form together a single pattern. This pattern is outlined with gold paint. The front and reverse sides of the box are decorated with blue, rectangular pieces of mother-of-pearl that shine with a variety of undertones.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Both the box's exterior and interior are covered with cream lacquer, except the box's interior bottom covered with cream velvety material. A hinge is fastened to the top of the portrait. The box can be locked by means of a gold metal needle. The box rests on four small rounded gold metal legs. The work is signed with the artist's initials (B.O.), Fedoskino and the year of 2010.
The decoration and the box itself are made in the Workshops of Yuriy Chernobayevskiy.
