Description: This interesting piece is Alexey Valyalin's original work. It shows a mother-dolphin and its cub swimming in the ocean's depths. The sunlight struggles through the underwater caves, and illuminates whimsical water plants, corals and bright, colored fish. The great skill is needed to reproduce the atmosphere of an underwater world.
Gold punchouts (gold scan patterns) are used to decorate the box's exterior; they decorate the edges of the lid, and they also can be found wrapping around the sides of the box. The box's exterior imitates a stone color: light grey veins are scattered against the blue-silver background. The interior is traditionally covered with red lacquer.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. It has a hinge from the top of the scene, and rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name, the year of 2008 and the village of Fedoskino.
