Citizen K Russia is not a very well-known magazine in the fashion industry yet. The high end fashion magazine which was launched in Russia about a year ago, is published in Paris on a quarterly basis.

The eclectic and quirky gun collection shown above is called [Russian Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jeweler-collective) and is a type of [mixed media display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyber-zombie). Entirely dissimilar and disparate objects, such as the faux machine gun on the first image, are used as platforms to show case these [vintage-looking heirlooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mikimoto-x-chrome-hearts).
