Troika Palekh Handmade Jewelry Trinket Box with Lacquer Miniature

The Troika Palekh Jewelry Box is suitable for storing precious items, jewelry, and keepsakes. 

On the surface of the jewelry box, a landscape is recreated with a majestic church, snow-covered houses, and a richly decorated troika of horses.

Materials and painting: The box is completely handcrafted from papier-mâché. Linseed oil, lacquer, tempera, and gold leaf are used in the decoration. Upon the finished painting, artists add the finest strokes and create minute details. The final touch of each painting and the box is the golden patterns that frame each miniature. The gold paint is made from crushed gold leaf.

The uniqueness of the miniature painting lies in the meticulous and detailed depiction of the scene.
