Armenian church maquettes
Work by Samvel Hakobyan
Samvel Hakobyan, People’s Master of Armenia, has spent forty years building more than thirty maquettes of Armenian churches: in tufa, the volcanic stone of the churches, and in silver and gold with obsidian, agate and mother of pearl. It is the family workshop where Momik learned.
