Description

The 'Kupchikha' teapot warmer doll is a traditional Soviet household item designed to keep brewed tea warm. Made of textile and cotton wool, it provides good thermal insulation. The doll's appearance is decorated with hand-painted details, depicting a merchant woman in folk style: a bright sarafan, a kokoshnik, and characteristic facial features.

The manufacturing technique involves sewing from fabric, stuffing with cotton wool, and subsequent painting on textile. Such warmers were widespread in the USSR in the 1970s-1980s and were often used as a decorative kitchen element. The item's dimensions are 240 x 340 x 410 mm, allowing it to cover a standard teapot.

Collectors should pay attention to the quality of the painting, the preservation of the fabric, and the absence of damage to the cotton wool base. The item reflects the aesthetics of Soviet decorative and applied art and may be of interest as an example of folk creativity of that period. The condition is not specified in the description, but such items often show signs of age, which does not diminish their museum value.
