Description:
The Schoolmistress and Other Stories (1920) is a collection of short stories by Russian writer Anton Chekhov. “The Schoolmistress” was written in 1897 and published in an issue of Moscow’s daily newspaper Russkiye Vedomosti. Even for Chekhov, whose work is characteristically bleak and noted for its unsparing realism, the title story of this collection is particularly hopeless. And yet, reading it alongside these other stories by a true icon of world and Russian literature, one cannot help but feel a sense of hope, reminded—as Chekhov’s readers almost invariably are—of the light one finds in even the darkest of places.
“The Schoolmistress,” which Chekhov wrote in Nice, is a brief story that follows Maria Vasilyevna as she returns to the village where she lives and works after collecting her pay in town. On the way, her cart nearly overturns, and she is forced to get out in the middle of a freezing river. To dry off, she takes a break at a local tavern, where she meets the formerly handsome Khanov, a landlord of her acquaintance. As she continues on her journey, she muses on her lot in life. Beset with memories and regrets, she struggles to make it home to a life she can hardly bear. “A Nervous Breakdown,” originally published in 1889, is the story of a young law student who reluctantly agrees to accompany his friends on a night in Moscow’s red-light district. Overwhelmed with despair and guilt, he struggles to reconcile what he sees with his own idealistic sense of the world. These are only two of the twenty-one works collected in The Schoolmistress and Other Stories, which showcase the immense talents of An

Perfect for travel. Sturdy and will keep your items safe.
Color: Cloud White, Size: 8"W, Color: Cloud White, Size: 8"W
This was a galentines gift for a gift exchange.
It comes with multiple compartments that are removable and can hold any type of jewelry from studs to necklaces, rings and bracelets.
Any solid bracelet takes some maneuvering to hold.
This is semi customizable to fit your needs and will house most jewelry items.
The zipper does get stuck a bit but is a strong thick zipper and not super flimsy.
The inserts on the sides can be removed, however, the ring inserts seem to be glued down.
Bigger jewelry or chunky jewelry pieces may not fit well in this travel case.
All in all it can hold quite a bit, the size is compact and perfect for travel and it’s a handy organizer for jewelry.

Great Value For The Money
Color: White
I needed something to present my daughter's upcoming 18th birthday gift in. It's a charm bracelet and a bunch of individual meaningful charms. None of them come in gift boxes, and I want something to present them all together in. Failing to find a gift box to fit the bill, I thought that this cute jewelry box would be a nice alternative. I am pleasantly surprised at what I received for the price. I expected a flimsy cardboard-ish box, and this is not that. It's not heirloom quality, but it is a nice sturdy box, well put together, and the interior tray and dividers are thick. Interior fabric is nicely soft and velvety. The box is larger than I expected, it will hold a good amount of jewelry, and it's pretty and of much better quality than I anticipated. Will certainly make a very nice presentation for my daughter's gift, and she'll be able to use it for many years, I'm sure.

Not your average jewelry box....
Color: Sage Green
A lovely simple yet elegant jewelry box - nicely made with a practical design. It has substantial weight and opens and closes nicely. This sage green color is muted with a matte finish making it soft in appearance. The gold closure adds just the right amount of interest. I placed a beautiful pendant inside as a surprise and together, these made the perfect gift for a 40th birthday. Would buy again!
