    • Toys

    Simple and fascinating, the action of a twirling wooden ball on a string makes the bear, the favorite character of the woodcarvers, perform complex actions, such as masterfully juggling colored balls. Some of the toys are activated by a push-button action. These carvings are prized by collectors young and old. Also included in this category are carvings from Sergiev-Posad, Zagorsk and elsewhere in Russia.
