✨ The Unicorn, Indrik-Beast (Russian: Индрик-зверь, transliteration: Indrik zver' ) is a legendary creature that has been described since antiquity as a beast with a single large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead. In the Dove Book and Russian folklore, the Unicorn is the king of all animals, who lives on a mountain known as "The Holy Mountain" where no other foot may tread. When it stirs, the Earth trembles. The word "Indrik" is a distorted version of the Russian word edinorog (unicorn).
We produce each tile by hand-pressing white earthenware clay into a plaster mold cast from our original hand-sculpted design based on the collections of 15th–17th-century Russian decorative tiles from Yaroslavl, Pskov, Moscow, Novgorod, Smolensk, Vladimir and Suzdal. This tile has its origin in the ancient Russian city of Yaroslavl.
✨ Majolica art is very popular in Russia. In the old days, Russian stoves were decorated with ceramic tiles. Exquisite handmade glazed tiles for centuries are used to decorate kitchens and bathrooms, churches and palaces, walls, and floors. It will look beautiful in the interior of your home or will become an original gift.
All of our tiles are hand-pressed and hand-painted with beautiful glazes. Because each tile is individually and completely handmade, the one I'll post to you is going to be a little different in shape and final result of glaze, from the one in the photos.
