Hand-Painted Russian Lacquer Box – Maiden by the Water, Black Lacquer & Red

Beautiful small Russian lacquer box featuring a hand-painted scene of a young maiden seated beside a stream, surrounded by wildflowers. The artwork is finely detailed with soft shading and classic folk-art styling, finished in a glossy black lacquer exterior and traditional red lacquer interior. This piece is likely from a late-Soviet / early post-Soviet souvenir workshop (1980s–1990s). It is not signed, but the painting quality is solid and consistent with decorative Russian lacquer traditions.
