   Bornukovo Stone-Carving Factory
Bornukovo stone-carving factory is located in a scenic site of the Buturlino district (Nizhniy Novgorod region) in the village of Bornukovo. For several generations, the village was well-known for its unique handicraft — Scythian-style stone carving. In the past, the local handicrafts were exported to 75 countries. Even during the WWII, the local carvers were granted exemption from active duty. Ornamental stone quarried in Bornukovo may come in a variety of colors: blue, reddish, brown, green, and rosy. Some time ago, Company management decided to revive the handicraft. On January 1, 2007, Bornukovo stone-carving factory was made a division of Décor-1 Peshelansky Gypsum Works LLC. With the opening of the Bornukovo Craftsman’s House, stone carving was complemented by gold embroidery, patchwork handicrafts and the manufacture of floor mats using the traditional technology. The factory employees learn new professions: organization of excursion tours, tourist services and teaching handicraft master classes. The employees are especially proud of the factory’s souvenir show-room. Its patchwork blankets, hand-woven floor mats, golden embroidery make the show-room especially colorful. Tourists spend hours watching the figurines of birds and animals, make photos. The articles made by the factory’s chief artist I. V. Yevstifeev make the show-room look especially smart and classy. All these unique articles are featured in the picturesque product catalog published by Bornukovo factory.
