These Russian Santas are carved by different master carvers and painted by various Russian artists. Most of the carvers and
artists live in the area of the Sergiev Posad countryside. This region has produced toys, Matryoska dolls and carvings for many
years. There are many artists living here who paint the pictures on the Russian Santa forms. The faces, painted scenes and
the sizes of the wooden Russian Santas all differ but they are all made from real linden wood and each one is hand carved so
that no one Santa is exactly as the other. An authentic master carver will take time to carve the form and will want to create a
piece that is lasting and a work of art. The artist then paints scenes from Russian fairy tales or from the countryside.
