Hold onto your hats, nautical fans and lovers of pharology (the study of lighthouses) – do we ever have a doll for you! This 11 " nesting doll set is carved to look just like a lighthouse and features the lights of West Quoddy Head, ME; Tybee Island, GA; Cape Canaveral, FL; and Ocracoke, NC.
Production Techniques: Hand Painting. This nesting doll was carved in the Upper Volga region, the Russian center of nesting doll carving. The carved pieces were assembled, doll inside a doll, and then delivered to the Golden Cockerel workshop in St. Petersburg, Russia. Our artists painstakingly hand paint every detail, beginning with backgrounds and moving to the finer elements that require a brush of very select Siberian squirrel hair. It is daunting to think of the time and talent invested in each of the nesting pieces! Finally we baptize each doll in multiple layers of non-toxic water-based lacquer to make a marvelous matryoshka that will delight children and collectors.
