KIEV POTTERY: The Kyiv Experimental Art Ceramics Factory was founded in 1924. After WWII the company expanded to manufacture decorative items - such as these figurines. The pottery and stylized figures were very popular items both for the more local Soviet market and also for export to leading retailers around Europe. Company started in 1924 as a state run factory until the break up in 1991. The company still exists today. Kyiv ceramics are highly treasured.
