Antique Russian Lacquered Miniatures

The creation of authentic Russian Lacquered Miniatures dates back over 200 years, and very few of the pieces produced before the communist takeover have survived . In the 1800's, the workshops of Lukutin and Vishnikov were the most prominent producers of these works; most often they were practical items painted on paper-mâché such as spice containers, cigarette or snuff boxes, tea-caddys, eyeglass holders, jewelry boxes and other daily use essentials for table or desk.
