Descripción

This lovely 5 pieces set was hand made and hand burned in Sergeev, Russia. Wood burning gives this doll a natural look. Although the majority of matryoshkas are painted all over, some have the native wood color exposed. The wood becomes the background of the doll, and paint is added to give her a face and costume. A heated poker is also used in some designs to burn in details of the matryoshka including facial features and costume. This is a pyrography technique also known as pokerwork or wood burning. The nesting dolls decorated with poker work are often called woodburn dolls. The woodburn technique is often combined with painting. This hand burned, hand painted nesting doll will bring a beatiful touch of Russian art to your decor. Signed by the artist
