St. Petersburg in glorious miniature

Visit the Legko Legko pottery shop in St. Petersburg to see the city in glorious miniature – and take home a piece of it. The Rostral Columns, the Admiralty, St. Catherine’s Palace, the Kazan Cathedral, markets, churches, theatres – everything is here in small scale. Just 5-7cms high, each ceramic piece is handmade and hand painted by the artisan Lyudmila Kuznetsova and her colleagues. The store was founded in 2011 and is run by Tatyana Naiko, who also organises a ceramic workshop on the site.
