Background
It is nice to find plates that were used on the Standart in the days when the Imperial family was happy before their tragic end. This china was made for the Imperial family at the time of the coronation in 1896 and replacements were manufactured until 1914. Although a considerable quantity was produced over the years a survey after World War I found only about 1000 pieces had survived. The service was used at the Winter Palace.
