Here is the only Russian one I have.
Probably a copy, but a old one.

no no, this is not Russia. There, even the eagle is not Russian and the crown is not imperial. This is something Italian I think

I doubt it might be Italian...
But as I said it is a old (non military item) , migth be a theatre prop and a total fantasy set up, in order to look like a Russian grenadier.
I don't think many other country's used a two headed eagle and this type of military head dress...
