Here is a superb porcelain tea set, painted with an armorial, PRINCE LOBANOV-ROVTOSKY of RUSSIA. Wonderful, exquisite set with a monogrammed crown to the reverse. It is possibly a child's set as it is very small. The monogram SKR may be that of PRINCESS SOFIA KASATKIN ROVTOSKY (1877-1918) perhaps assasinated by the Bolsheviks the same year as her brother, Nikolai (1886-1918). Perfect for any discerning collection.
