Gift fit for a queen: famous Tula samovars at the RUSSIA EXPO Department Store

The Tula samovar is a hallmark of Tula and one of the most famous folk crafts of Russia. During feasts, it was placed in the center of the table. In literary works, it was an unchanging attribute of warmth and coziness. The first samovars in the city appeared at the end of the XVIII century in the workshop of the Lisitsyn brothers.

Today, the artistic casting workshop "Court Manufacturer" produces exclusive collectible samovars and souvenirs made of brass and copper. The workshop employs representatives of the modern dynasty of Tula samovar masters, the Volgins. The founder of the dynasty, Viktor Fyodorovich Volgin, is the creator of the famous gift samovar "Russian Field". Modern souvenir samovars are also beautiful and unique.

By the way, Tula is famous for its samovars for a reason. It was the local gunsmiths, with their many years of experience working with metal and access to ore deposits, who managed to turn the samovar into a work of art on the one hand and establish mass production on the other. The workshop operates in a full cycle mode, from sketch to finished product. Mass-produced items are made using modern equipment and the latest technologies.

At the same time, the workshop's team preserves the continuity of Tula samovar craft traditions that have developed over several centuries. This allows modern masters to create samples of highly artistic forms with elegant lines and harmonious decor, making samovars true works of decorative-applied art.
