Matryoshka -- Russian nesting dolls

The original set of matryoshka art dolls was originally created in Russia in 1890 by Sergei Maliutin and Vasiliy Zvezdochkin, inspired by Japanese kokeshi dolls. The outermost figure is usually that of a woman in traditional Russian garb. Each successive doll is smaller than its predecessor, and the innermost doll is usually a baby that cannot be opened. The original matryoshka dolls were presented at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1900 and won a medal.

The Semenov matryoshka dolls are made in a traditional style and painted in aniline dyes. The apron is the focal point: there will be a large asymmetrical flower bouquet. Three colours are used for these dolls: red, yellow, and green. There is often a spiral design on the headscarf of the dolls.

The Viatka matryohska dolls have rounded child-like facial features. They are painted in simple bright colours with a floral design on the apron.

Tver matryoshka are distinctive in that they are often painted over a wood-burned design which enhances the detailing of their clothing. The colours used are very bright with non-stylized apron designs.

The matryoshka from Polkhovsky Maidan are quite stylized, often having spiral curls for hair. Their outfits tend toward yellow tones with some reds and greens used.

Those matryohska dolls produced in Sergiev-Posad are far more modern in appearance than those elsewhere. Many have detailed face-painting and bodies. The designs are not restricted to the traditional floral apron. It is not unusual to find matryoshka dolls from this region with domed churches, snow scenes, and fairytale paintings.
