Traditional Folk Crafts

About

The Nizhny Novgorod region leads in preserving traditional folk crafts in Russia. Here, traditions are carefully preserved — from Khokhloma and Gorodets painting to Kazakov filigree. That’s why the most popular souvenirs include: painted matryoshkas from Semenov, Khokhloma spoons, Gorodets-style jewelry boxes and cutting boards, and unique filigree pieces.
