Zhbannikovo toy - whistle. Zhbannikovo toy (Russian: Жбанниковская игрушка) is a traditional Russian folk handicraft of moulded clay figures produced in villages of Zhbannikovo, Ryzhukhin, Rompin and others in Gorodetsky District of Nizhny Novgorod Oblast. It originated in the beginning of XX century in village Zhbannikovo which in later years became a production centre of clay toys - whistles. Zbannikovo figures resemble a pyramid like body on a three-legged base. Horse, cow, deer, lamb and rooster painted with dark enamel paints and decorated with lighter ornaments are the main characters of Zhbannikovo toys. Separate parts of the body like horns, ears, muzzles, hooves, etc. are silvered with aluminium powder. _x000D__x000D_ This example of Zhbannikovo handicraft of moulded painted figures depicts a traditional slavic dragon with three heads._x000D__x000D_ Light blue dragon stands on two short front legs and extended lower body part with a hole in the middle of the base and other hole at the end of the body. The end of the body is covered with silver dyes. Three heads are shaped on the tapering long neck. Blue heads with small black horns and prolonged red jaw with a hole have black rounded eyes and a hole instead of a nose, faces decorated with silver and yellow light strokes of a brush. Two small holes are made in lower part of the jaw from both sides on every head. The back of the dragon is red with six spikes with black tops. The part between the neck and body has a hole on each side decorated with five black dots resembling a flower. Blue surface covered with a varnish after painting (probably) in most parts is decorated with yellow ornament made using a sponge.

A lamp made from two brass plates and a piece of fabric. The bottom section is a brass plate with raised sides, and a solid ring at the edge. After this is a latticework pattern of diamonds with a row of leaves, made by carving and pushing holes through the solid sheet - some pieces have been left in. In the centre is another solid piece, with dots and arches for decoration. On the inside, there is a small raised section to hold a candle. The top section is the same, with the exception that at the centre there is a brass plate with a hole in the middle for heat and smoke to escape. At either side of this is a solid bar, which is affixed to a brass handle to hang the lamp. The two pieces are connected by a concertina of fabric, treated to be resistant to the heat, which is quite stiff - this is supported by metal rings within, which allow it to fold down for easier transport and storage. The concertina of fabric is fastened at four points to both brass plates by passing a smaller, thin loop of metal through holes in the brass. The fabric is plain, but stained and dirty from use.
