From maker, Golden Cockerel:
"Northern lights fill the sky over this charming Eskimo village scene. A panorama of colorful Inuit life wraps each of the nesting dolls, making the every-day festive and the commonplace legendary. There are so many lovely details on this Alaskan-themed nesting doll that it seems to have no front or back, no beginning or end. Animals critical to the survival of the Inuit line the ethnic matryoshka; in front of the wigwams we see a polar bear, seal, reindeer, and festive fish. Add this doll to your collection and you will smile like the sun.
Production Techniques: Hand Painting/ Decoupage. This nesting doll was carved in the Upper Volga region, the Russian center of nesting doll carving. The carved pieced were assembled, doll inside a doll, then delivered to the Golden Cockerel workshop in St. Petersburg, Russia. Our artists first hand paint the background, then apply various detailed elements, such as faces, which we print on a very thin vinyl adhesive. Such elements are reproduced original works of art we make specifically for nesting doll design. It is the artist’s magic brush that blends the two forms of artwork together into a unified piece. Finally we baptize each doll in multiple layers of non-toxic water-based lacquer to make a marvelous matryoshka that will delight children and collectors. The bottom of the largest doll gets stamped with Golden Cockerel’s “Made in Russia” mark of nesting doll quality, initialed by the artist, and dated like a true collectible. We can only hope you will give it a good home."
