General condition displayed on the photo

History reference: Artel "Progress" was created after the war by a government decision, along with many other artels with the aim of employing disabled people. The artel was headed not by the director, but by the elected chairman; a hostel was organized for the workers. Workshops worked: jewelry (earrings, brooches), plastic (combs, soap dishes), porcelain (dishes, sculpture). The artel did not last long, the porcelain production was curtailed, and the artel was transferred to the jewelry department.

Dear buyers!

All parcels are shipped with tracking number and air mail. Usually delivery from Russia takes about 2-3 weeks. Now, due to the epidemic and other negative events, many packages are delayed, so if you expect to receive your purchase by a certain date, be sure to keep these force majeure circumstances in mind.

I ship WORLDWIDE, with the exception of those countries where delivery is not possible for a number of pressing reasons, if you are not from the USA, then it is better to check with me the possibility of sending to your country at the moment.
