The Russian toy is unusually good. Love for Russia is absorbed with mother's milk, and it grows stronger from contemplation of Russian nature, acquaintance with its heroic and tragic past, from studying majestic architecture, from touching Russian traditions.
And the masters, famous for their golden hands, have long been in Russia. Their craft became a family craft, and the district where the craftsmen lived, made it famous all over the world.
Entire villages were engaged in one type of fishery: we weaved laces, painted kerchiefs, made spoons, samovars, or made children and adults happy: toys. To this day, toys made by Russian masters, bring joy to people and become an ornament of many collections.
The whole world knows our doll-nested doll. It is taken from Russia to all parts of the world as a souvenir. Historians-researchers established that Russian nesting dolls were carved in the image and likeness of Japanese figures of a bald nun, who were brought to Russia by travelers. The first Russian matryoshka was carved by master Zvezdochkin, and painted by Sergei Malyutin. It consisted of eight figures: the first, the largest - a girl holding a cockerel, followed by a boy and so on. The most recent was the baby in diapers.
