Gzhel Sadko Porcelain Box - Blue and white porcelain

Gzhel is the name of a picturesque rural region near Moscow that developed its own unique style of creating and decorating porcelain products. The traditional Gzhel porcelain designs use blue paint to create amazing, fairy tale ornaments on tableware and other items made of porcelain. The cobalt-blue paint will last for as long as the porcelain item itself exists because it is protected by a specially-designed glaze. The designs are always applied by hand and their color and shapes are known to have positive psychological effects on people. Nowadays, beautiful Gzhel porcelain is used not only in kitchens and dining rooms, but also as unique and rare interior decoration pieces!
