For someone who is learning Russian!
Russian spy type stuff would be good as well.
Any ideas?

vodka? maybe a selection of different types/flavours.
caviar (if you're feeling rich!)
homemade blinis - or write out the recipe? + smoked salmon
russian/nesting dolls.
+ the film 'Enemy at the Gates' if they like war type stuff

Isn't pickled cabbage Russian?
Hollowed out stone, the type that you can buy to hide front door keys in, but weren't they used in Russia with cameras in or drop zones or something?
War and Peace
Not sure if this is in bad taste - book of antidotes?!
Red square - a hankie?!
Headscarf for a female

Home made vodka liquer (cranberries are particularly good)
Russian dolls... (although I don't think the santa ones are very russian...)
DVD "From Russian with love"
Caviar (this doesn't have to be the pricey stuff- infact get the ones with large red caviar. This is what they tend to eat most of)
Champagne (kid you not... christmas is started with a champagne, caviar and pancakes as it new years even...)
My step mother is russian so these would be things she'd either do or they would normally give
I guess it just depends on how "Russian" you want it to be or if you prefer "the spy stuff" DFW Nerd #025DFW no more! Officially debt free 2017 - now joining the MFW's!

I saw Russian hamper - I thought of vodka, (Russian) Roulette (wheel) althought I think Wilko are doing some sort of russian roulette drinking game at the moment. I also thought of potatoes, and the film, to Russia with Love.
I saw some of those russian dolls somewhere as well - can't remember where though - was it Ikea?- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Theres a thread on the old style board for all different flavours of homemade vodka. May be worth looking there.

Lidl do caviar for less than £2. Try your local poundshop for kids binoculars or even one of those mini disposable cameras.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0
