The wooden dolls are decorated with traditional Russian patterns. The dolls' cultural heritage is from ancient Russian culture and traditions. Russian artists use patterns such as the sun, birds or flowers that we often see on clothes. The Matryoshka dolls usually represent a woman from the countryside dressed in a traditional Russian costume. Flowers are often painted on the doll's aprons because they are a symbol of love and motherhood for the Russians. Some of the patterns on the Matryoshka dolls are complicated so they have to be done by highly skilled craftsmen, who pass on their skills to their children. Nowadays, fewer people are making Matryoshka dolls so there is a fear that there will be no one left to make them in the future.
