Dolls from the Semenov region — home to some of the very first Matryoshka makers, dating back to the original 1890 set — known for bold florals, a wide painted apron and a signature bunch of flowers in the hand, each hand-turned on a lathe and individually hand-painted. Semenov-style Matryoshka are among the most recognisable regional traditions in Russian nesting dolls.
The style is known for bold floral decoration, colourful clothing, broad painted aprons and distinctive bouquets. Semenov has an important place in the history of Russian Matryoshka and is closely associated with the development of the traditional nesting-doll craft.
Our Semenov-style dolls are Russian-made, hand-turned and individually hand-painted.
