Jewelry craft on the Kostroma land began to be engaged in at the beginning of the second millennium. One of the successors of local jewelry traditions were the masters of the Jewelry Studio of Ilya Palkin.
Studio founder Ilya Palkin and his wife Vera created a unique style based on Russian folk art.
The masters’ creations are based on elements of embroidery, Russian painting, wood carving, and even African tattoos. By studying traditional Russian forms, ornaments, plots, the authors give them a new sound.
Masters and artists of the studio revive and develop the folk, man-made jewelry art of the Kostroma Territory, with its inherent originality.
The works of artists express a rich spiritual world, an extraordinary fantasy, perfectly convey the possibilities of metal and specific jewelry casting techniques.
Jewelry is created from gold and silver using traditional hot enamel technique and natural stones.
In silver figurines radiating joy, one can trace the fusion of ancient Slavic and Finno-Ugric images with illustrations of fairy tales.
Archaic casting with bright enamel spots are pleasing to the eye and hands tired of computer molds.
Man-made, warm, recognizable decorations of the studio can add color, enliven your image, cheer you up and make you smile!
