(SOLD) Imperial Russian Porcelain Livadia Palace Service Plate.

Possibly the rarest of all the Palace service plates this service

was small, as the holiday palace in the Crimea was infrequently

occupied and had an intimate dining room for only 24. The mauve

plates feature the Empress Alexandra Feodorovna's favourite colour.

and accident of fate as they had been designed prior to her acscencion.

The name of the Palace appears at the top of the plate. This is a

Nichoals II period Imperial Porcelain Factory example.
