This superior Russian lacquer artistry was created by the talented Oleg Yastrebov of Fedoskino. His ability to depict strikingly decorative compositions is second to none. The box shows a maiden who cooks Samovar Tea. She uses a Russian jackboot (sapog) to rekindle the samovar quickly. The scene is beautifully painted in Yastrebov's recognizable style using various tones of light oils. The edges of the lid are decorated with a thin gold line. The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. A hinge is fastened to the left of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name, Fedoskino, the year of 2006 and the title ("Would You Like Some Tea?").
