Golden Khokhloma "Summer Strawberries" Cookie Canister These Golden Khokhloma "Summer Strawberies" Cookie Canister is made of the finest quality Russian Khokhloma lacquerware. These canisters are handcrafted today in the same 300-year old tradition created by the early icon makers to give each piece the illusion of gold. The process includes six steps: (1) the linden wood is shaped; (2) painted with a clay primer and baked; (3) rubbed with oil and air-dried; (4) rolled in powdered aluminum and baked (years ago they used tin); (5) the artwork pattern is painted; (6) 3 coats of hot lacquer are applied, and any of the pattern left silver by the artist will turn to the beautiful golden color. Hand-painted in the "travka" style, the rich combination of crimson berries, flowers and leaves, on a golden background, will bring a "touch of country" to your home. With this set is included a booklet entitled "Forests of Gold", which gives a brief history of Khokhloma Painting and its various pattern styles. Measuremen
