She grew up on her parents' country estate Kirejewo near Moscow. In the summer of 1882 she married Wladimir Wassiljewitsch Jakuntschikow (1855-1916), the son of the Moscow entrepreneur Vasily Iwanowitsch Jakuntschikow , whose daughter Natalja Wassiljewna married the painter Vasily Dmitrijewitsch Polenov .
In 1890, Yakuntschikova and her aunt Yelisaveta Grigoryevna Mamontova opened a shop for Russian products on Petrowka in Moscow, where they accepted orders for handicrafts . In the following years, Jakuntschikowa went to the estate of her aunt in Gromok (Ujesd Morshansk ) and taught at the neighboring Solo Minka ( Rajon Bashmakovo ) a sewing workshop and a stick workshop one in which artistic according to their templates lace and embroidery for decorations, curtains and valances and later also women's clothes and traditional costumes were made. Jakuntschikowa exhibited products from their workshops at the Paris World Exhibition in 1900 and received the Ordre des Palmes Académiques . In 1902, at the All-Russian Crafts and Industry Exhibition in the Tauride Palace in St. Petersburg , Yakuntchikova's stand particularly impressed foreigners.

The money was used to build a large building in Solominka, in which almost all of Solominka's women were engaged in weaving, sewing, knitting, embroidery and dyeing. At the beginning of the war in 1914, the German managers were banned from working and work in the workshops was stopped. In her uncle's Abramzewo artists' colony , Yakuntschikova had been running the carpentry and embroidery workshop since 1908.
