  • Every time I pass by this shop I want to buy the matriochkas. But I guess 65 dolls is overkill:

65 euro for ALL of those? You have more discipline than me! They're so gorgeous.
I love your photos.

I wish!! It's not 65 euros, it's 65 dolls in this set. 65 rare, hand-painted dolls. There was no price tag but I'm sure they're much more expensive than that...

Do all 65 fit inside each other? That's amazing if they do.

Yes, they do! They're nesting dolls. And they're all hand-painted with scenes from traditional Russian folk tales, even the little ones. It's pretty impressive.

Oui, il y a quelque choses de magique entre les flaques d'eau et les photos,
on ne les voit pas forcément lorsqu'on on appuie sur le déclencheur,
puis elles apparaissent miraculeusement et magnifient la photo.

Ca me rappelle photo de la place d'armes que j'ai prise à Versailles il y a qq temps.

Definitely NOT overkill! How much for the set?

I don't know, I think this set is not for sale and just for show. I checked their website and there's a somewhat similar set, a bit less fancy, for 850 euros. But they don't even mention how many dolls, probably less than 65...

Now that I think about it, 850 euros is probably just for the FOUR dolls they show on their picture... The one in their shop's window must be priceless!
