The Kremlin Service was originally commissioned in 1837–1838 by Tsar Nicholas I of Russia (1796–1855) for the Grand Kremlin Palace in Moscow, which was then being reconstructed. The service was designed by Feodor Grigorievich Solntsev (1801–1892) in the 17th century old Russian style. The basis was a gold and enamel plate in the collections of the Kremlin Armoury, made in 1667 for Tsar Alexis of Russia (1629–1676).
