Permanent exhibition of the collection by Ukrainian miniaturist Nikolai Syadristy, considered the global genius of miniatures. His unique work, unparalleled worldwide, must be observed under a microscope.

The only permanent exhibition of the Ukrainian master Nikolai Syadristy, considered the world genius of miniature. His works present historical, cultural, philosophical, plastic, and varied themes. Made with gold, platinum, and natural materials, each creation presents a different technical problem perfectly solved by the artist. The 14 pieces represent eight years of work and must be observed under a microscope. It is considered that Syadristy's work cannot be surpassed in the future.

The museum also presents the work of the Chinese artist Liu Shouben, holder of the title of Grand Master of Beijing. The collection consists of small Chinese bottles called "snuff-bottles", measuring 5 cm, painted inside with motifs about Andorra where some of the main characters, landscapes, and monuments of Andorra can be seen. Reproducing Western motifs had never been done before, and it is a challenge proposed by the museum owner to the artist, who accepted and carried out with absolute precision.

In response to the international tourism that visits us, Liu Shouben has also created "snuff-bottles" reproducing prominent international motifs, such as the Château de Chambord, the Sagrada Familia, or the Park Güell. The museum expands its content each year with new pieces.

Finally, the museum completes its offer with a magnificent collection of traditional Russian dolls called matryoshkas, with an enchanting plastic beauty, and an exhibition of papier-mâché boxes from the main schools of the Golden Ring of Moscow.
