Private Guide & Professional Driver in Moscow Arthur Lookyanov.

My name is Arthur Lookyanov and I'm very glad to cheer you as a visitor of my personal web-site. Although I wasn't born in Moscow, I've lived in the capital of Russia since I was 2 years old. That's why I consider myself a real Muscovite who loves this city as well as his own Motherland and respects it as a native city.

Russian style porcelain "Gzhel" at the craft market Vernisazh.
Gzhel is the name of the oldest and most famous Russian ceramic centre which is situated at the distance of some 50 km south-east of Moscow and known since XIV-th century as a home of potter's production. Gzhel is also the name of a village in this area and this name is applied to the beautiful artistic porcelain and majolica ware made there.
