Vyatka Collection of THREE Vyatka 3-set Babushkas Babushka Matryoshka nesting Doll

About Our Babushka Matryoshka Nesting Dolls

Matryoshka — known worldwide as Babushka dolls — are Russia’s most iconic handcrafted wooden dolls, treasured for over 130 years as gifts, collector’s pieces and family keepsakes. The name comes from Matryona, symbolising motherhood and family, while “Babushka” (grandmother) is the familiar nickname.

This set is a traditional classic Matryoshka — full-size dolls carrying the timeless designs and colours that have defined Russian nesting dolls for generations, making them a perfect starting point for any collection or a genuine piece of Russian folk art for your home.

At Dolls In Dolls, we take great care to understand and verify the origins of every Matryoshka doll we offer. Every doll we stock represents traditional Russian craftsmanship:

• ✔ Linden wood, typically dried for two to three years before carving
• ✔ Hand-turned on a lathe by a master craftsman
• ✔ Individually hand-painted by a skilled artist
• ✔ Finished with 3–5 layers of protective lacquer

Because every doll is handmade, each set has its own character — natural variations in wood grain, colour and painted detail make every piece genuinely unique.

SIGNED BY THE ARTIST

Every set is individually signed by the artist who painted it — a mark of authenticity you won’t find on mass-produced dolls.
