Assiette en porcelaine polychrome et dorée à décor floral provenant du service d'Olga Nikolaevna Romanova, Saint-Petersbourg, Russie, vers 1840

Dia.: 25 cm

Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna of Russia (1822-1892) was the second daughter of Nicolas I and of his wife Charlotte of Prussia. 

Olga met Kronprinz Karl of Württemberg in early 1846 in Palermo, Two Sicilies. Her parents wished that she make a dynastic marriage, especially since her siblings Alexander, Maria and Alexandra had married relatively insignificant royal partners. There had already been several marriages between members of the Russian Imperial Family and members of the Württemberg Royal Family (in addition to the marriage between Olga's paternal grandparents): Olga's future father-in-law, King Wilhelm I of Württemberg, married Olga's paternal aunt, Grand Duchess Catherine of Russia; Olga's paternal uncle, Grand Duke Michael of Russia, married Wilhelm I's niece, Princess Charlotte of Württemberg.

The Imperial Porcelain Manufactory's dinner service was commissioned by Tsar Nicholas I for Grand Duchess Olga's 18th birthday in 1840 as part of her dowry.
