The jewelry box was an essential element of noble households in the 19th century.

The exhibit, displayed at the Nikolay Nekrasov Museum-Reserve “Karabikha”, belonged to the poet’s family.

The artwork and shape of the box are typical of the 1860s. It is rectangular, made of wood and painted in black. The lid and sides are decorated with relief and linear carving.

This box is one of the few items from the estate that have survived to this day. It was kept in the family of the poet’s niece Vera Andreeva, née Nekrasova. This item was received by the museum from Yelena Andreeva, the daughter of Vera Fyodorovna, in 1966.

Vera Nekrasova was born in Karabikha in 1877 in the family of Fyodor and Natalia Nekrasov.

After the death of her elder sister Elizaveta in 1944, Vera decided to move to another sister, Anastasia, in Karabikha. They lived in the Green House of the estate.

The lives of Vera Fyodorovna’s four children were quite dramatic. One daughter tragically died, the son Boris never returned from the war. The second daughter Yelena went to the front as a young girl, from where she returned missing her right arm and left leg. The third, Natalia, lived in St. Petersburg. Yelena and Natalia came to Karabikha to visit their mother.

When the museum was established on the territory of the estate, Vera Fyodorovna began to actively cooperate with its staff: she assisted in creating a memorial exhibition in the East Wing, made guided tours, participated in scientific events that were dedicated to the life and work of Nikolay Nekrasov.

Vera Fyodorovna left her memories of everyday life of the Nekrasov family in the pre-revolutionary estate. More than 50 items were donated by the poet’s niece to the museum’s collection.

A great help in completing the museum’s collections was provided by the poet’s nieces Anastasia Fyodorovna <…> and Vera Fyodorovna <…>, who lived on the territory of ‘Karabikha’. They donated to the museum more than fifty anniversary issues of newspapers of 1902–1916 devoted to Nekrasov, photographs of the estate, interiors of rooms and neighborhoods of Karabikha at the end of the 19th — early 20th century, as well as dishes, furniture and other items. The nieces helped with attributing the exhibits coming to the museum, confirming their memorial character and determining their location in the estate during the poet’s lifetime; they also left their memories of the furnishings of the poet’s private rooms in the East Wing.
