Description:
This elegant box is a creation of Oleg Gavrilov of Fedoskino. It shows the orange, white and black colored butterfly sitting on the white-pinkish peony flower. Painting numerous petals, fresh green leaves, pink, ready to bloom buds; and skillfully combining various shades of pink, white, green and blue the artist has managed to reproduce realistically the magnificent bouquet that seems to emanate delicate aroma.
A thin gold metal thread wraps around the box's sides.
The box is made out of paper-mache. Black lacquer covers the exterior and the box's interior imitates the color of olive-green marble. On the box's interior bottom the artist has written his name. There is a hinge to the top of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom.
