During the spring, birch bark
   is peeled from select birch
   trees (without harming the
   tree). The birch bark is pressed
   flat and specially treated. This treatment gives the birch bark
   a leather-like feel and look of unsurpassed beauty! A piece of
   wood -- pine, lime, maple or Siberian Cedar -- is expressly chosen
   for color and theme and prepared for the base. A design, to scale,
   is created on paper. This design is then traced onto the treated birch
   bark, which is then hand cut. Each work may use several layers of
   birch bark, each perfectly fitting in with the base. Sections are
   then stained and preserved with a wax polish.

  Each work is painstakingly created
   with detail and love. These works
   are so beautiful -- the back of each
   piece is even a work of art -- etched
   with Gennady Pavlov's personal
   stamp, name of work, creation
   number and date of creation.

   Seeing is believing!
