Kholmogory bone carving is a traditional handicraft practiced in the villages of Kholmogorsky District, Arkhangelsk Oblast, in the north of Russia.
The craft of bone carving was developed in the town of Kholmogory in the 17th century. It is first mentioned in connection with the fact that two Kholmogory sculptors, brothers Yevdokim and Semyon Sheshenin, were invited to work in the Kremlin arsenal, which carried out orders before the Tsar’s court.
The craft reached its peak in the 18th century under the rule of Peter the Great. Craftsmen used walrus ivory, seal bones, and in rare cases even elephant and mammoth ivory. In the 18th century, carved boxes, bracelets, portrait frames and similar objects were very popular. In the second half of the 19th century, handicrafts declined and by the 1880s there were few sculptors left.
The local authorities made an effort to save the handicrafts and in 1885 a masterclass in bone carving was opened in the village of Lomonosovo, close to Kholmogory. The class had to be closed in 1900 for lack of interest. The next attempt to revive the handicrafts was made in 1934, when the Central Executive Committee of the USSR passed a special decree on measures to develop the bone carving of Kholmogory.
In 1937, the carved objects received acclaim at the 1937 World Fair in Paris. In the thirties and fifties, the main purpose of the handicraft was to serve the Soviet propaganda, and therefore the objects were carved in the style of the Stalin empire. Special item, presumably made of ivory on a black wooden trapezoid plinth, which is nicely decorated along the sides. It can be different types of ivory, see description above.

The October Revolution was a revolution in Russia led by the Bolshevik Party of Vladimir Lenin. It followed and capitalized on the February Revolution of the same year, which overthrew the Tsarist autocracy and resulted in a provisional government.
As the October Revolution was not universally recognized, there followed the struggles of the Russian Civil War (1917–22) and the creation of the Soviet Union in 1922. The Bolsheviks would become the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Stalin was one of the militairy leaders of the Bolsheviks and took control over the Soviet Union after Lenin’s death in 1924.

Jakovlev Yak 28 handcrafted Polished Honorary gift. NATO reporting name Firebar. First flight 1958. The plane is made of high-gloss polished aluminum and has an aluminum bracket and stands on a 2-color facet cut acrylic base with inscription from 1973.
Airplane can be turned off the bracket and the bracket can also be unscrewed from the base, just like the front support legs. Note how thin the points on the wing are, how beautifully the rocket is made at the bottom.
The Yakovlev Yak-28 is a swept wing, turbojet-powered combat aircraft used by the Soviet Union. Produced initially as a tactical bomber, it was also manufactured in reconnaissance, electronic warfare, interceptor, and trainer versions. It began to enter service in 1960.
The aircraft is perhaps best known for the heroic actions of Captain Boris Kapustin and Lieutenant Yuri Yanov after the Yak-28 they were piloting suffered a catastrophic engine malfunction in 1966. They were ordered to divert to attempt a landing in Soviet zone of Germany, but lost control of the aircraft and strayed into the airspace of West Berlin. The crew managed to avoid a housing estate but crashed into Lake Stößensee without ejecting. Their bodies, along with the wreckage, were raised from the lake by Royal Naval divers who also retrieved important top secret material from the plane, including the engines, which were taken to RAF Gatow to be inspected by RAF and American engineers. The bodies of the two pilots were returned to the USSR with full military honors from both Soviet and British armed service members, and they were both posthumously awarded the Order of the Red Banner. Both engines were returned to the Soviets on May 2, 1966.

The treaty was signed on 14 May 1955 in the Polish capital, Warsaw, in response to NATO by the Soviet Union, Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, the GDR, Hungary, Poland and Czechoslovakia. All but one of the communist states in Eastern Europe were members: only Yugoslavia was left out. The members of the pact promised to defend each other if one or more members were attacked.

The Petlyakov Pe-2 was a Soviet twin-engined dive bomber used during World War II. One of the outstanding tactical attack aircraft of the war, it also proved successful as a heavy fighter, as a night fighter (Pe-3 variant) and as a reconnaissance aircraft. In many respects it resembled the wooden British Havilland Mosquito.
The Soviets manufactured Pe-2s in greater numbers (11,430 built) during the war than any other twin-engined combat aircraft except for the German Junkers Ju 88 and the British Vickers Wellington. The Pe-2 was fast, maneuverable and durable. Several Communist air forces flew the type after the war, when it became known by the NATO reporting name Buck.

Plastic desktop ornament with white hammer and red bajonet with flag. The memorial is made in remembrance of the WWII operation Gallop.
Operation Gallop was a Soviet army operation on the Eastern Front of World War II. The operation was part of a series of counteroffensives following the encirclement of Stalingrad following the German summer offensive in 1942. The Soviet High Command expected a collapse of the German front line and launched a number of counteroffensives to exploit the weak German situation. The offensive was initially successful when the Soviets broke through the weak German lines. The Germans were pushed back to a line west of Voroshilovgrad.
Facing a total collapse in the south, the German command arranged a number of reorganisations and a newly created Army Group South out of the shattered forces of the old army Groups A and B led by von Manstein. The Soviet offensives, initially successful, eventually ran faster than their supply lines, and during a counteroffensive in Kharkov, the Germans were able to regain momentum. The result would be a final German strategic offensive at Kursk.
