Mediaeval Russian Bogatyr Ceramic Knob
A depiction of a battle between a Russian bogatyr and an Asiatic warrior, both on horseback. Bogatyri are heroic characters found in mediaeval Slavic epics. They are akin to the knights-errant of Western literature. Most of the stories about bogatyri revolve around the court of Vladimir I of Kiev (958–1015). Some bogatyri are presumed to be historical figures. Bogatyri protected Russian land and people against invaders, especially Tatars. Some were attributed powers and strength which were almost divine. This image is adapted from a black and white line drawing illustration in "Повесть о славных богатырях, златом граде Киеве и великой напасти на землю Русскую" (A Tale of Glorious Heroes From the Golden City Kiev and the Great Scourging of the Russian Land) by Tamara Likhiotal; published in the USSR in 1974.

Creator Review
I have created and ordered hundreds of knobs on my Zazzle store, and I've been thrilled with all. The fairy series though is exceptional. Sure, the clarity on my porthole windows, seashells, etc. was perfect; yet, when I opened the package and saw these, I was mesmerized. I stared at them off and on all night wondering how they could print such beautiful absolutely perfect details without a flaw ... the color, the eyes, the overall product considering how small the knobs are and how detailed the little fairies are which cannot be seen in my photos even. These are perfect for a child's room, for furniture to give a Victorian look, and I am ordering the entire series to eventually use on a dresser as well as wood strips (2 or 3 at a time) to make hangers for jewelry and clothing. If yours turn out like mine, you'll be amazed. My photos do not do the knobs justice. Another Zazzle hit above and beyond perfection! I keep asking myself how they did it. Yes, to print an anchor or seashell on a small ceramic knob has always been beautiful with Zazzle; yet, how on earth did they catch every detail in the eyes, face, etc. of these? Kudos to the printers! Again, my photos do not do the knobs justice. The product is exactly as the photo you see on the product page for sale.

We used this as the handle for a box we made to hold our clients beloved Springer's ashes. The wording and image was perfect for the application. The clarity of the image is descent for the size.

The quality of these knobs was exactly what I wanted. I wanted something original for my bifold doors and these are just perfect. I would like to have had the colors come out just a slight bit darker, but I am happy with it overall.
