Description: N. E. Zaytseva of Mstera is the talent behind this creative view of beauty. Color and expression make their presence felt throughout. Pleasing to the eye, touching the heart. That is what this authentic Russian artistry is all about.
The box features a wedding ceremony of elves. Dressed in the wide white attires, they sit on the meadow surrounded with their guests and musicians. The bridegroom is going to drink a bowl of sweet nectar, and says how beautiful his future wife is. To accentuate festivity of the moment the artist has chosen a beautiful pinkish orange color palette, and painted many flowers and birds of paradise. Gold paint is used to bring out the life in the composition. Everything is very radiant, alive even. This is a feature typically found within Nataliya Zaytseva's work.
The artist continues to paint the meadow filled with various flowers detailed with bright gold paint on the box's sides. It serves as an original decoration. On the box exterior bottom the artist has painted a garland of flowers outlined with gold paint, and nearby she wrote in gold the title ("Enchanted World. Wedding Ceremony of Elves"), her name and the village of Mstera.
The box is made out of paper-mache. Black lacquer covers the exterior and red lacquer covers the interior of the box. The box has a hinge above the composition and rests on a flat bottom.
