From now on customers from western countries can acquire original pieces of Yuri’s Fedorov’s work directly from official partner Dona Dei.
Dona Dei offers unique jewellery by one of the most talented artists from St.Petersburg Yuri Feodorov, the author of a unique collection of cross pendants, scapulars, foldable icons, reliquaries, Easter eggs and other objects of fine iconic plastic art.
All pieces of jewellery are manufactured at the company Yuri Feodorov's Artistic Workshops (St.Petersburg, Russia). Yuri Feodorov is the founder and director of the company, and the company is the sole holder of the copyright and exclusive rights for all jewellery designs created by the artist.
Following the old traditions, he uses engraving and optical tools to manually carve the model in its natural size. Jewellery articles are then manufactured from state-of-the-art materials by modern vacuum-pressure-casting machines from SHULTHEISS (Germany) which allows reproducing the finest details of the original design. All finishing operations, including partial plating with a wear-resistant 5 microns layer of gold, embossment of the relief in black and artistic processing, are done manually.
All pieces of jewellery undergo quality control by the author, who checks the artistic as well as the technical quality of the completed work. Circulation of all jewellery designs is limited. Each design is a result of the meticulous research and pious work efforts by the author, not a copy of any historical heritage object. Every piece of jewellery carries a deep spiritual meaning of the ancient relics conveyed by means of the iconographic and symbolic language of ecclesiastical art which was built over the centuries-long history of the Orthodox Church. Every work has a detailed description providing the historical and theological context to help a better appreciation of the spiritual value of jewellery. Over 35 years of creative work, Feodorov has only created about 200 works of fine iconic plastic art.

The high demand for the artwork of Yuri Feodorov coupled with the limited circulation of designs has led to the appearance on the market of a great number of pirated copies and look-alikes. By acquiring artwork from official partner Dona Dei you can be assured that you have bought the items that were created by master Yuri Feodorov in his Artistic Workshops.
