10pcs Pink Wooden Russian Nesting Dolls Gift Matreshka Handmade

When I saw that my package was from China, I was a bit skeptical. Added to that, it was shipped the entire way in a thin plastic envelope with absolutely no padding and I expected that it would be broken, but to my surprise the dolls were completely intact. They look exactly as pictured, and are beautiful for a mass-produced product. I was also impressed with the machining of the wood. The dolls fit together perfectly, and that is no small feat considering they are working with wood. There are so many dolls, and I was surprised when they kept getting smaller and smaller. There was a slight odor of fresh paint when I opened them up, but I simply let them all sit out for a few days and they were perfectly fine. Great set for the price. My niece loved them.I would recommend that the manufacturer invest in bubble lined packages.

We are thrilled with our set. After reading some of the review, my expectations were very low. When they arrive, I was surprised to find that in our case, the quality of the product far exceed the cost. Also, These dolls are used as a quiet time toy for a just turned 3 year old, and they are far more durable than I ever expected.These are not the same quality as an EXTREMELY high quality collectors nesting doll from Russia, however, the price is not the $80 and up a traditional collectors set costs either. These came from China. But again, the quality I received FAR FAR out weighs the small cost of this set. The painting was well done, the dolls all fit together properly, coloring was all in the correct places, and most of all the child LOVES them....priceless.

We laughed and laughed when opening these dolls! Every time we didn't think they could get any smaller, they did! It was such a great time to see my niece so excited for these.The only complaints we had were they were a little hard to open (they made a horrible squeaking noise when the wood rubbed) and they are a little thin. The wood isn't a high quality, but for the price the overall product was good.

we recieved them in a timely manner however the old addage "You get what you pay for." applies here. My daughter used her birthday money to purchase them and some of the pieces are difficult to open and close due to them being painted natural wood. The paint is sloppy, full of lines and grooves as if a child did the larger parts and the paint isnt sealed, making it rough to the touch. She still likes them and wont let me return them but as an adult, i would not recommend these dolls to anyone. Spend a few more dollars and get better quality ;)

These nesting dolls are beautifully done. The 10th one is so very tiny. My granddaughers loved them (I bought another set in blue). Paired them with books: Sasha's Matroiska Dolls by Jana Dillon, The Littlest Matryoshka by Corinne DeMas and Baba Yaga and Vasilisa the Brave by Mariana Mayer (with great illustrations by Kinuko Craft).These dolls do not have a finished coat, so you can't wipe them off and they are susceptible to finger marks. Wood is also quite thin, so they are able to break if dropped. Not for the very very young. I would say 10 years or older.

It took forever to get here and arrived late. When I got it, it had a horrible paint smell and I couldn't open them to see all the dolls. Since I could not get them apart, I don't think that my 5 year old grand daughter would be able to either.

I ordered this nesting doll set as a gift for my 8 year old niece. I WANTED to order her one that was MADE in RUSSIA/USSR/RUSSIAN FEDERATION, because I feel they are really the only LEGIT sets. When I saw, scrolling way down in the product details, that the ORIGIN was "RUSSIAN FEDERATION" I thought it was fine. in actuality, the product was MADE IN and CAME FROM CHINA!!!! not at all what I wanted. I am extremely disappointed that this was represented as being from the Russian Federation. nowhere on the page did it say that it was made in China nor shipped from China. The page says "sold by and shipped by LTGiant. When I clicked the link for LTGiant, I found nowhere on THAT page that said WHERE LTGIANT is located. That's so uncool. Hiding the origin, the country of sale, the country of shipping.... really???that being said, the color is exactly as pictured - a lovely bright pink. The pieces are all in perfect condition, despite rather shoddy packaging. It arrived in a plastic ENVELOPE with a single "pocket" of bubble wrap. The actual doll set is in a pretty clear cellophane bag with pink dots on it that a young girl would be pleased with.I am disappointed in the actual finishing of the set. Most nesting dolls sets are glazed or varnished after being painted, giving them a glossy finish, which is also easier to clean/dust. This is matte finish and feels a little rough. Most of the dolls in the set are reasonable looking - they're painted with nice faces and details and are a nice shape. The littlest in the set is much flatter than in the picture - kinda looks squashed and odd.

My two and a half year old daughter LOVES these nesting dolls. They are beautifully painted and fit together perfectly. The one thing that might be worth considering if you're buying these for a kid is that the little ones are really, really little, so your kid has to have some pretty good fine motor skills to put the tiny ones together. They would definitely not be appropriate for a kid who might still put stuff in her mouth. Overall, I think they're a fantastic product.
