Traditional Dolls

Crafting dolls that wear ethnic and ancient garments dates back to late 19th century Moscow. The “Russkiye Kukly” workshop (meaning “Russian Dolls”) has revived this fascinating tradition of old Russia. The heads of our dolls are made of gypsum and hand painted. In creating the dolls, a craftsman applies traditional Russian fabrics and natural materials, such as willow wood, bast, birch bark, leather, fur, flax, wool, and glass beads made in the village of Kostino near Moscow. These dolls are created with ethnographic accuracy and artistic persuasiveness to depict the look in old Russia.
