My newest treasure! A lovely vintage enamel pin featuring the firebird - hands down my favorite creature from Slavic folklore and also my favorite ballet. (And a central motif of my ever laborious novel i'm writing)
Fun fact: Vaslav Nijinksy wanted to dance the part of the Firebird instead of the role of Prince Ivan, which would have been absolutely incredible, but this was in the 1910s and having a male dancer do a female part was too edgy for everyone (which is pretty funny if you know about certain other performances dear Vatsa was involved in)
Anyhoo - Большое спасибо to Katya @sovietpostcards for finding this for me!! Give her page a look she's got so many cool things!

verrrrry overwhelmed and stressed today and then someone sent me a message through the website to tell me i am a terrible person because they read The Firebird and Kaz and... oddly it did brighten my day a little.
