The unique craft of Raikhat Safiullin

      A resident of the village of Verkhniye Shipki has been making chests for 10 years.

      In the attic of an ordinary utility building, among tools and the smell of fresh wood, there is an amazing workshop. Here, time flows differently — slowly, thoughtfully, with taste. The owner of this unusual place is Raykhat Safiullin. Ten years ago, Raykhat decided to dedicate himself to creating chests — and since then, he cannot imagine his life without this work. His father was a carpenter — a man who could feel the wood, hear it, understand its character.

      On average, it takes the master twenty days to make one chest. Each stage — from selecting the wood to the finishing touches — he does by hand.

      Raykhat Safiullin's chests are sent to various homes. Some store family relics in them, some keep a dowry for their daughter, and some simply appreciate the beauty and warmth of real wood.

      And as long as there are such masters, the craft lives on, the warmth of human hands lives on, which forever remains in each of his creations.
