Guide to Porcelain exported from Russia for function and art

Fine porcelain exported from Russia can take the form of a functional serving piece like the glass holder pictured below, or a more elaborate design of another functional item like the porcelain samovar also pictured.

A more artistic form of porcelain presents as a porcelain egg, like the one we see here.

Our personal favorites are the Gzhel pieces, both serving ware and decorative figurines. You'll find prime examples of both types on the shopping pages we have linked here. If you prefer to look at more ceramic and porcelain choices than just Gzhel, the links to all varieties are in the right column of this page.
