Well-known talented Fedoskino artist Alexey Chirkov is the creator of this beautiful box. It continues the artist's "owl series", and shows the Owl sitting on the branch of the old tree. The stem of the tree the owl is sitting on, and the stems of the trees painted in the background are highlighted with golden paint. The area of the lid that is free from painting is decorated with tiny gold stars, triangles, circles, dots and various whimsical figures. A piece of mother-of-pearl helps to reproduce realistically a glow of the moon behind the bird.
The details of the painting of the bird itself are just amazing! The feathers are painted just masterfully!
The box is constructed of paper-mache. Black lacquer covers the exterior and red lacquer covers the interior of the work. The lid is hinged from the left, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name, the village of Fedoskino, the year of 2007 and the title (“ A White Night”) on the box's exterior bottom.
