Zhostovo painting is a folk craft of artistic painting of metal trays, existing in the village of Zhostovo, Mytishchi district, Moscow region.
The craft of painted metal trays arose in the middle of the 18th century. in the Urals, where the Demidovs' metallurgical plants were located (Nizhny Tagil, Nevyansk, Verkh-Neyvinsk), and only in the first half of the 19th century, trays began to be made in the villages of the Moscow province - Zhostovo, Troitsky, Novoseltsevo, etc. Soon the Moscow craft became the leading one. Currently, the production of trays with lacquer painting is concentrated in the village of Zhostovo, Moscow Region, and in Nizhny Tagil. From the first half of the 19th century, workshops for the production of painted trays worked in several villages of the Moscow province: Ostashkov, p. Troitsky, Sorokin, Khlebnikov and others. The Zhostovo factory dates back to the workshop (opened in 1825) of the peasants who bought themselves off - the Vishnyakov brothers. In 1928, several artels, formed on the basis of workshops after the revolution, merged into one - "Metal Podnos" in the village of Zhostovo, which later (1960) was transformed into the Zhostovo factory of decorative painting.
