This is à well-known russian souvenir in modern appearance. It is called Matryoshka.It is made of wood and decorated with special oil-paints by hand. On the pictures you can see faces of such famous people as President of Russia Mr.Putin, president of USA Mr.Bush, Michael Jakson, Usama Ben Laden, Lenin, Harry Potter and so on. I guess everyone knows that there are many smaller Matryoskas inside the main one.You can use it for keeping some small things like a jewels, or just for fun, or give it as a present from Russia. Actually nowadays russians don't use it anymore and make mainly for foreigners. I've took this pictures 2 months ago in Moscow.
