Re: Need Help/Translation, Identifying Russian Lacquer Box

The word on the left is Холуй (Kholuy), one of the four centres of Russian lacquer art:

(links provided for their informational value only).

 

The artist's name on the right appears to be Попов (Popov). This site lists a Kholui artist of that name, but provides no biographical information:

I can't read the word after Kholui, unfortunately.
