Patriotic souvenirs in memory of the great victory
Military symbols for all Russians and residents of the CIS countries serve as a reminder of the war, of the blood spilled, of the dead and surviving soldiers and officers. All these pleasant things strengthen patriotism and turn May 9 into the greatest day of glory and memory. One of the suitable souvenirs is the USSR gift set, in which you will find a felt trunk, a flask, two stacks and a book "The Science of Winning" about the life of the famous commander Alexander Suvorov. His biography is filled with the most interesting events, and it can be read as prose.
The Moscow Kremlin pen made of metal and acrylic resin seems to be a work of art not only because of the gold plating and the high-grade gold pen. The pen is decorated with an amazing painting with a realistic image of the Moscow River and the Kremlin, so it can rightfully be called a design masterpiece. Due to the economical ink supply technique, they are consumed almost twice as slowly, although two spare ink cartridges are included.
The Stalin panel made of wood and brass, decorated with paintings by Zlatoust masters, will appeal to representatives of the older generation who are nostalgic for the legendary past. An elegant miniature that looks very bright and colorful, will decorate the study and stir up the most pleasant feelings in the soul…
George the Victorious - protection of all soldiers
The skill of blackening on silver will not leave indifferent all fans of folk art, especially when this technique is used to create icons. The image of St. George the Victorious defeating the enemy is closely related to the military theme. Many warriors went into battle, keeping paper icons in their breast pockets, asking an invisible defender for help and protection. The silver icon with St. George the Victorious, made in the technique of the "northern rabble", has a rich and contrasting texture. Due to the dark shade of silver, the icon looks like an antique, so it is worth considering as a gift.
The image of this saint is also represented in the design of the safe-clock made of white marble, lavishly decorated with noble bronze. The technology of artistic casting, which has been used since the III third millennium BC, turns even the simplest sculpture into a work of art of a high level. This unique product has not only artistic value, but is also very practical in everyday life, because it can store jewelry, money and expensive things - the durable mechanism works flawlessly!
Military knives for peaceful purposes
Weapon lovers will be glad to see a new collectible model of the Victory Day submachine gun made during the Great Patriotic War. Later, the gun was restored and improved. Zlatoust craftsmen took part in the design of the weapon, turning an ordinary machine gun into a historical rarity.
Pay attention to another valuable find - the hunting set "Military Intelligence", which contains knives, a flask and stacks - you can't do without them in war! These luxurious but incredibly practical products are covered with gold, silver, platinum and also decorated in the Zlatoust style. The knife is made of high-quality steel and placed in a leather sheath. Both a young soldier and an old soldier (if they are experts, of course) will appreciate this stylish weapon.
An officer's dirk with a wooden handle made of nickel and gold will decorate a collection of military paraphernalia and strengthen a sense of patriotism. There is an engraving on the blade of the dirk depicting the monument to the "Warrior Liberator", which stands in Treptow Park in Berlin.
Sculptures about the war as a gift
Statuettes with military symbols are one of the most popular gifts for those who were at war or are just interested in the army theme. They resemble miniature models of monuments that were erected after the war to perpetuate the feat of Soviet soldiers. The composition of bronze, marble and dolerite represents the figure of a Soviet soldier in military equipment. Pay attention to the detailed drawing of the face and clothes - all the folds and medals are very clearly visible, and the expression of the warrior's face reflects fatigue, anxiety and unshakeable calm. The master managed to achieve this result thanks to casting from bronze, since this material is quite plastic and makes it possible to deeply draw even the smallest details.
The statuette "WWII Pilot", which is also cast in bronze, looks very interesting. The figure of a pilot in military uniform, gazing intently at the sky, conveys many emotions, among which the intense expectation and faith in victory are especially vividly felt. You can easily see the smallest elements of the pilot's clothes and the expression on his face. And the most amazing thing is that this statuette can be studied for a very long time, each time finding something new and unusual in it.
Dishes with military symbols
Military-themed tableware has always been appreciated among vintage lovers. The set of Derzhava 3D cup holders made of brass and glass recalls the Soviet times, when no tea party was complete without these spectacular accessories. Now we drink tea from cups, and once, including during the war, cup holders were popular. Even the simplest tea tastes better with them!
A silver Beetle glass decorated with gilding and stained glass enamel is unlikely to want to be used at the table. Most likely, it will become a stylish interior accessory, although such glasses are often used to serve a festive table on May 9. Stained glass enamel, shimmering with all the shades of the palette, seems very fragile, but this impression is deceptive. The glass is durable and will last for many years, especially if it is carefully cared for and treated like a museum exhibit.
The St. George Ribbon silver spoon is a more budget-friendly gift, but it looks very noble and even luxurious. The spoon is made of the highest grade silver using the blackening technique, so it looks as if it was stored all these years in my grandmother's chest. Yes, the spoon has "aged" a little, but vintage products are now in high price. The Leningrad and Moscow cup holders, which are made in the same style, are successfully combined with a spoon - why not add them to your collection of family silver?
I would like to finish the review of Victory Day gifts with souvenir silver coins "Courage, honor, glory". The ancient technology of blackening on silver has turned them into unique souvenirs that you always want to keep in a prominent place. Courage, honor and glory - these are the words that come to mind when we talk about the great feat of Soviet soldiers. And so that these terrible events will never happen again, we will remember the war and on May 9, we will celebrate this historic day with our family and give each other gifts. Don't forget to order a beautiful engraving and spectacular packaging!
