Russian Legacy Imports Treasures from Russia
Specific categories listed on left also
Russian Legacy provides an import / export solution for good from Russia and the former Soviet Union (USSR). The new CIS works towards
a capitalistic economy, but there are many holes in the smooth transition from Communism to Capitalism. Russian Legacy is managed by a
very proactive Russian citizen who travels the world and promotes Russian culture and artistic treasures.
It is a huge nightmare to keep up with the laws and regulations of transporting goods across the borders in Russia or the other CIS states.
Many of the treasured antiquities of the Russian culture have already been raided and lost forever, so the government is very protective.
The solution to this problem is to promote and market the artwork of traditionally trained artists of today. These craftsmen (and women)
take great pride in the creation of hand painted wooden ware and exquisite woven fabrics and textiles, plus paintings and creations in
porcelain, red clay, linden wood and more.
If you take the time to look around you'll find jewelry boxes to rival any custom designed piece available anywhere in the world. And since
Russia and the other CIS states are fairly new to the capitalistic economy, you'll find that the prices are very appropriate to the value
of the piece and usually much lower than you would pay in an American high end department store.
Please don't leave until you've glanced at the Soviet military surplus, too. Soviet Navy uniforms, officer greatcoats, fur hats for all
ranks and for ordinary citizens, plus propaganda posters, postcards with propaganda, AK-47 tee shirts, AK-47 posters, etc. There are even
Soviet submarine clocks for sale in the watch and clock department.
