Description:

This beautiful box is a creation of a world-known Top Fedoskino Master-Sergey Kozlov.
Here the artist has chosen to depict the Cathedral of the Resurrection or more commonly known as the Our Savior on the Split Blood Cathedral. It was built on this specific location because it was where Alexander II life was taken in 1881. Located on the Griboyedov Canal its foundation was laid in 1883, and construction lasted twenty four years when it was consecrated in 1907. Today it has once again been given back to believers. Cathedral on the Split Blood is the most known place of interest in St.Petersburg.
The box has pieces of mother-of-pearl inlays and that gives additional shinning to a box , especially in the skies and on the water of the river and channels. In the water of the river we can see a reflection of the Cathedral!!!
The box exterior is covered with black lacquer and decorated with metal gold and silver shapes cut out of gold and silver metal foil, and glued to the box manually(so called "scan"). Its interior is traditionally red. The box is made of paper-mache, rests flat and has a hinge to the left of the composition.
The box is signed by a Master.
Fine box!
