You can buy them in Antique shops or also in Vernisaz (“Вернисаж”, metro “Партизанская”— a market of souvenirs and paintings). Unfortunately, you won’t be able to take them abroad, if they are very old, they will be confiscated

    You will have to get permission to remove any artifacts from Russia (which is very doubtful you will get) and as far as hiding them in your suitcase. Your suitcase will be searched by a customs agent when you leave the country (no exceptions)and if they find them they will be taken and you are subject to be detained.

    No, you can not transport antiques outside of Russia. The authorities WILL find out, and they'll hunt you down. Leave our masterpieces alone, there's already enough that have been stolen from our country!
    Just get yourself a nice copy at the souvenir shop in the Tretyakovskaya Gallery…
