The art of painting on papier-mâché boxes began in the late eighteenth century in Danilkova, a village near Moscow . Soon it was brought to Fedoskino, Palekh, Kholui, and Mstera. The Russian lacquer boxes are primarily constructed of cardboard that is glued, pressed together, and cut to specific sizes. Once oven dried and cured, several coats of lacquer are applied inside and out and the boxes are cleaned and polished to a smooth finish. The box is ready to be transformed into a small miracle reflecting the artist's reflection of a chosen fairy tale, song, legend, opera, or ballet. read more
