We are first studio of tin miniature in Russia, which consequently devotes their products to God and people of Faith, history of Salvation and Holiness.

History: we live and work in St.Petersburg. Faith gave an impulse to transform tin toy soldiers to plastic forms of spiritual images. From 1998 we are producing miniatures on biblical events and now it is main direction of our activity. Christian miniatures are represented by our brand “ADAMA” – which means earth, from which man Adam was created by act of Creator: “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul” (Genesis 2,7).

Product: Genuine tin miniatures of limited editions, finely hand found from tin alloy. Figures are either colored in acrylic or tempera paints or monochrome toned. There’s also printed historical description or short story about person or event.

Credo: “O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand” (Isaia 64,8).

Peculiarity: Simple, clear and beautiful ideas, made a reality with touch of tenderness and humor. We produce tin figures not for fashion and our competitors and inspirers are – blank list, Giotto, Peter Breughel, Nicolaus Copernic, Giuseppe Guarneri, Jules Verne, Antonio Gaudi, Eiffel, Anton Chekhov, G.K. Chesterton, Andrey Tarkovskiy, Craig Armstrong, north wind, open windows, holy people, Word of God.

Search for truth and beauty, desire to keep in mind deeds of our fathers and to pass it to our children – all of that led us to choice of following directions: History of Russia and Christianity, in which we try to live with faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and conscientiously do what we have to do. Our figures are unique and suit to experienced collector – history connoisseur or romantic discoverer. Also there are original descriptions that can help to understand world, life and ourselves. Miniatures are good presents for recollection and they bring joy to people. Someone likes the meaning behind, someone else details of sculpture, some like quality of painting. And there’s someone who, together with us, reflects upon life and its peripeteias.

Philosophy: Life of man is supreme miracle – it has everything: joy and sadness, hope and disappointment, ability to sacrifice and incapacity to be true to oneself. Every figure is result of contact with History, with others, with our hearts. Value of our product is in its simplicity, humaneness. For us each figure is harvest of our faith and hope, that every person can melt himself, cleanse from husk as tin cast and live for Love.

Desire: Tell stories about people, develop new beautiful sculptures. Move on forward, speak with people, be good to them through our work.

Faithfully yours, Sergey Zemskov.
