The national art is a special phenomenon of culture. It embraces many folklore traditions including decorative art, which has developed during the whole human history. The masters used to make such things as wooden pots and pans, implements, toys and cloths for themselves and their fellow-villagers. The things from pottery, bone, copper and iron ores were created in the useful arts centers, which appeared near natural recourses. Artworks of national masters were sold not only in Russia but also in foreign countries.
