Solid wooden eggs hand painted and decorated by our most famous artist, Olga Sidko. These are one-of-a-kind, unique Russian collectables. Each egg is an individual, with no duplicates or reproductions.
Using, in some cases, cat's eyes and other stones, Olga has created a most beautiful commemoration of Easter to be enjoyed every season for years to come!
These eggs are truly beautiful. You MUST see them to really appreciate them. My poor photography does not do them justice.
Therse eggs are in the U.S. right now, so there are no delays in delivery. All will be shipped Post Express. Delivery of 2-3 days.

Olga has out done herself again! Her new Bible theme matreshka is absolutely gorgeous! The Garden of Eden on the front of the largest doll is highly detailed and complex, with myriad animals, butterflies, birds and scenery. Wrapping around the main doll's back is a beautiful star-studded night sky. Inside are other themes from the Bible including Jonah and the whale (with the smaller Jonah doll inside the whale doll, of course). Mary, Joseph and many others. To appreciate this wonderful, unusual matreshka you simply must see it. It will be given it's own page with graphics of each separate piece.
