The main goal of Olga Prokofieva's book is to serve as a link between eras, introducing us to everyday objects and the spiritual world of the past. The world of things, like a second reality, accompanies us from birth to death. We all surround ourselves with things, loved and cherished. Some objects come into being, others fall out of use. The latter either disappear entirely or are preserved in museum collections and private collections. The author attempts to systematize reliable information about "forgotten" objects. This is based on archival documents, old catalogs, paintings, photographs, and numerous other sources. The book is intended for a wide audience who would like to lift the curtain on the past and take a knowledgeable look at mysterious ancient objects.
