RUSSIAN DOLLS
At Metamorphosis in St.Ives we only carry authentic Russian Matrioshka dolls, straight from Russia. The semyenov and polkhov dolls are hand painted in the state workshops and are therefore the cheapest. All the others are hand painted by individual artists from all around Russia and are bought Fair Trade directly from the artists and craftsmen concerned with their production. Our producers are fully aware of the prices that their work is sold for in the u.k and are satisfied that they receive a fair price. They are fully independant and free of government controls and subsidies. Children are not involved in the production of any of our products.
Below is a list of some of the most popular designs, but we have a very extensive range in the shop including some exquisite pieces where each doll is a work of art on it's own.
