| Khokhloma is an ancient traditional Russian hand painting method which produces a very bright color effect, especially the color of gold! * Each piece of Khokhloma is absolutely unique because each individual item is hand painted by an artist and no piece is ever identical! It is the only Official Hohloma maker in Russia. All products have label "Hand Made in Russia" with the official Semenov factory logo.. Items with khokhloma painting were famous not only in Russia but in Persia, India, Middle East, the USA and Australia as well. The export of khokhloma items grew after the worldwide exhibition in 1889 in Paris. *** Wood for Khokhloma items preliminarily kept on the air within a year; then carved of different shapes; item covered by linseed oil, aluminum powder, then is painted and lacquered.
