♥ This is Khokhloma painting, a traditional Russian craft. It is made in the village of Khokhloma. ✨ KHOKHLOMA is characterized by its black background with red berry patterns, but there are also some that use green colors with lily of the valley flowers. The material of Khokhloma is linden wood ✨ ◎ Flowers, fruits, birds, leaves, vines, etc. (things that bring natural blessings) seem to be the base. It is painted with layers of tin and lacquer, and finished beautifully like goldwork. It is hand-painted by artisans. Displaying it and putting candy in it is also soothing. ♣ It is resistant to heat and acid, so it can be used as everyday tableware. However, microwave use is not allowed. Purchased in St. Petersburg, Russia. ❄ Size → Bowl ~ Diameter 11.5cm x Height approx. 6cm Spoon ~ Length approx. 14.2cm (The handle is slightly different.) Rice scoop ~ 5cm or 6cm, various sizes. (As expected, the size and pattern positions seem to differ even with the same design.) I have had it for a while since I bought it, but it has been stored unused. Since it is not new, please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. If you are interested, please consider it.
