Scarlet Flower Lacquer Trinket Box (small)
A tiny hand-painted Russian lacquer box with a fairy-tale scene: a maiden in a long blue sarafan and a white, red-flowered veil reaches for a glowing scarlet bloom — the Scarlet Flower (Аленький цветочек), Russia's own version of Beauty and the Beast, in which the youngest daughter asks her merchant father for nothing but a little scarlet flower and finds herself in the enchanted garden of the Beast. Painted in the Palekh manner, with green foliage and a plain gold border on glossy black. Small enough to hold a ring or a pair of earrings — a charming little gift for a lover of fairy tales.
