The Sovietski Collection is an extraordinary and enticing specialty store. An online catalog featuring scores of authentic Cold War-era collectibles! In addition, you'll find a fantastic assortment of timeless treasures, handcrafted folk art, jewelry and porcelain, traditional music and many one-of-a-kind finds that aren't available anywhere else.

Many of the Sovietski Collection products were produced during the Cold War under state-planned economies. They were often made without considering the cost, for a military that demanded the best, such as the binoculars pictured here. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, they became available for all to enjoy. It's as if an entire country went bankrupt and its remaining stock could be bought for a fraction of its true value. Here the savings are passed on to you. Thanks for coming along on our treasure hunt!

Your treasure hunt will present you with a dizzying array of choices. You'll find a variety of timepieces, optics and outdoor gear. Or, you may covet the collection of antique and reproduction samovars like the Enamelled Samovar with matching tray and teapot shown here.

For 250 years, samovars have occupied an honored place in Russian homes. Not only the centerpiece of the table, but a prized family heirloom as well. Keeping water hot all day (and often, all night, too) so it could be added to the teapot to make a piping hot cup of tea, anytime. The samovars in the Sovietski Collection are from the famous Tula factory, producers of fine samovars since 1745. An artist has hand painted a classic Russian fairy tale scene on each samovar and matching serving tray/teapot. A beautiful addition to your home. Use a samovar to dispense hot water for coffee or at your next tea party.
