  • “The Banqueting Service for the Grand Peterhof Palace”. A remarkable large Russian porcelain dinner service.was commissioned during the reign of Tsar Nicholas I of Russia. The service was inspired by a mid-18th century French Sèvres service, which was given to King Christian VII of Denmark in 1768 from King Louis XV of France. The service supplemented during the later part of the 19th century and up until the early 20th century. The Grand Peterhof Palace, built in the early 18th century for Tsar Peter the Great, is situated outside St. Petersburg by the Gulf of Finland.
