Non-food and gift items
The catalog isn't limited to groceries. The same new-arrivals feed includes traditional Russian tea glass holders (podstakannik) in nickel-plated blackened finishes with crystal glasses, priced at $59.99 each, in designs such as "FSB," "Pushkin," "Spasskaya Tower," "Saint Basil's Cathedral," "T-34 Tank," and "Stalin." There are also wall-mounted calendars for 2027 and 2027–2028, including "Russian Tsars," "Russian Icon," "Saint Petersburg From A Bird's-Eye View," "Saint Petersburg 21st Century," "Soviet Postcard," and "St. Petersburg In Watercolor," each at $14.99.
These sit alongside the dedicated Gifts category, which is the better place to browse if you're shopping for a present rather than restocking a pantry.
What to check before ordering
- Perishable items. Salmon caviar is explicitly flagged as perishable. If you're ordering it, plan for delivery timing and refrigeration on arrival.
- Shipping. The store advertises US nationwide shipping and mentions free shipping availability, but the page does not state the thresholds or conditions, so confirm at checkout.
- Seasonal stock. Seasonal and holiday specials suggest some products are only carried at certain times of year.
- Prices and availability. Listings show "Add to cart" and "in cart" states, meaning stock moves; verify current price and availability on the product page.
