According to some historians and archaeologists, the history of FIlimonov toys began as early as 1000 years ago. During archaeological excavations, some of the first, most primitive, clay toys of that period were found near the Tula region. They were small decorations for whistles in shape of birds, animals and people. Filimonov painting appeared on toys at the beginning of the 19th century. In our museum of samovars you can find out their history and decorate your very own clay toy.
