Nižnij Tagil Цвеће Испорука Цвећар

Being a border point between Europe and Asia, Nizhniy Tagil used to be Russia’s oldest center of metallurgy. It has been heavily industrialized so far. The cold climate of the Sverdlovsk region is not conducive to either gardening or flower cultivation. But if you happened to attend Nizhniy Tagil, you would probably hear a story of a different kind. The legend has it that the stone flower owned by the Mistress of the Copper Mountain is more beautiful than any of the best flowers throughout the world. But the price for catching a glimpse of it is too high. No one stands a chance to survive, because then all pleasures of life will seem insipid, tasteless, and dull. The living can’t bear the magnificence and perfection of Mistress’s stone flower. The legend was recorded by Pavel Bazhov, a famous Russian writer. His book The Malachite Box was published in 1939 and awarded the Stalin prize in 1942.
The stone flower is the embodiment of the irrefutable magic power of stone. The malachite mine of Nizhniy Tagil was almost exhausted in XX century. Yet, at the Urals, there are still two dozens of craftsmen whose predecessors made famous stone flowers for Versailles and a former imperial residence Tsarskoye Selo. In fact, most of the modern malachite flowers are too tiny to be impressive. Nevertheless, they don’t cost an arm and a leg. And it is a perfect romantic gift from Russia.
