The elderly couple marvel as their prayers for a child are answered. The Snowmaiden they have made in front of their tiny cottage has come to life. The lovely girl smiles shyly as her new parents beam with delight. The scene is nicely painted in rich tones with warm glowing accents from gold foil underlay and metallic paint. This box is made of high quality papier mache and is signed on the lid with the artist's name (Tolmacheva), village, and date of completion. There is a hinge on the left, and the interior is red lacquer. The base of this piece is flush.--BOX1080
