We founded our gift shop and mail-order business over 30 years ago in 1972. Word of our existence grew slowly but steadily, and today we are well known throughout North America, Europe, South America, and Australia. We attribute our success to the blend of first hand knowledge of all things Russian with an American connoisseur perspective and business expertise.       We are mail-order retailers of unusual Russian gifts: Lomonosov cobalt blue net porcelain, borzoi, samovars and teaglass holders, Russian Royal objet d'art, icons and orthodoxy, masterpiece replica oil paintings, matryoshka nesting dolls, theatrical prop rentals, lacquer, books, cards. Our shop is located near Chicago in picturesque Lisle, Illinois. Thank you for your interest, The Shukins
