Vintage Russian Lacquer Box Moscow Kremlin Hand Painted Papier Mache Jewelry Trinket Box Soviet Era Decor

This vintage Russian lacquer box features a hand-painted view of the Moscow Kremlin, showcasing its iconic towers, palace, and golden onion domes. The scene is set against a traditional black lacquer background with a rich red interior, a hallmark of classic Russian lacquer craftsmanship.

Crafted from papier-mâché and finished with multiple layers of lacquer, this box has a smooth glossy surface and a hinged lid. These decorative boxes were commonly produced during the Soviet era and used for jewelry, keepsakes, or as display pieces.

Please note: there is a small chip on the bottom left corner, visible upon close inspection. This does not affect the structure or use of the box and is consistent with age. Please see photos for detail, as they are part of the description.
