FAIRY TALE Baba Yaga COTTAGE Hand - Painted RUSSIAN Wooden BUTTON, Signed, LARGE
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:14089461 |
Beautiful, wooden button -- RUSSIAN FAIRY TALE COTTAGE -- was produced in Russia / the USSR in 2007. This button was hand-painted, on a wooden disc, by a skilled Russian artist. It depicts a fantasy home, with bird claw supports and a young woman standing outside. I'm sure this is based on a Russian fairy tale -- I believe it is the tale of Baba Yaga. The button has been signed by the artist -- but I can't quite make out the exact name. It has a metal shank ...on the back. Please refer to the ruler in the image for the size. Overall condition: Solid VG+ ..... The button may have some surface wear, but there are no chips, cracks or other more serious flaws. It will display quite well. See attached photos for more detail on the condition. ***************************************** PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT an expert on vintage buttons. My mom -- Nancy Moran -- was a longtime member of the National Button Society, plus was active in several local button clubs in New York. She is downsizing, so I am helping her sell some of her collection. But I am not familiar with all the terminology and intricacies of button collecting. I try to use various notes she left with the buttons to describe them to the best of my ability, but understand that any terms I use in describing these items, are not terms I am familiar or experienced with. So please use the attached images to form your own opinions. I am also not knowledgeable on the hobby criteria in condition grading -- so I use my condition grades in a commonsense manner -- as if grading any collectible -- they are not based on any hobby standards. Please contact me if you have specific questions, and I will answer them as best I can.
