Provenance
From the collection of Marta Nobel-Oleinikoff (1881-1973), most possibly inherited by her from Ludvig and Edla Nobel. The service was at the Kirjola Estate, that was built at the Karelian Isthmus as a sommer retreat in 1905 by Edla for the Nobel Family after drawings by the Swedish professor Gustav Nyström. Martha came to live at the mansion after her husband, the Russian doctor Georg Oleinikoff (1864-1937) had drowned in 1937.
