Vintage Russian Nesting Dolls

Appears to have an artist name (signature?) on the base of the largest doll (photo #4). Unsure of year or history of the nesting dolls -- they were given to me as a gift in the late 1990s and I've had them with me ever since.
Dolls have some overall rubbing, scuffing, light markings on the interiors, scuffing of the wood, light scratches, a little chipping of the paint (especially where they connect), some nicks in the wood, a few smudges, some minor paint inconsistencies,
etc. (see photos #9-24 for up-close examples). The 2nd largest one is also a bit difficult to connect/ close (the wood may be a little warped?).
See all photos for quality & condition issues or feel free to reach out with questions.
