Product Overview
This small box is a creation of the Fedoskino artist Olga Smirnova. Here she has painted a charming little dog. The palette is chosen to give the dog a touch of realism. The brushwork is very intricate and even allows a viewer to see the dog's fur as if it were really furry.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. The dog painted on the mother of pearls. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. The lid is hinged from the left side of the scene and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name. Approx. 3.75"x3"x1.25".
