Russian Nesting dolls, otherwise known as Matryoshka dolls, first made their debut in 1890.  They were carved by Vasily Zvyozdochkin and designed by Sergey Malyutin.  While the traditional Russian Nesting doll calls for a women dressed in a rather bland outfit followed by subsequent women “nested on the inside,” the work of art has seen a variety of variations.  Case in point is this Batman inspired series from designer Katya Malakhova. Unfortunately, they’re not for sale, but here’s to inspiration.
