History: This cooler is part of the table service offered to Grand Duchess Alexandra Nikolaevna of Russia (1825-1844) by her father Tsar Nicholas I (1796-1855) on the occasion of her marriage to Landgrave Friedrich of Hesse-Kassel (1820-1884) in 1844. This union was celebrated at the Winter Palace in Saint Petersburg. Unfortunately, the marriage was short-lived since, the following year, Alexandra died in childbirth at the age of nineteen. Our cooler is an example of the sumptuous pieces offered as dowries by Tsar Nicholas I for his daughters. Carl Johann Tegelsten (1798-1852), a silversmith of Finnish origin, was regularly called upon to provide services for members of the imperial family. The majority of the elements of this silver service are now in the collections of the Fasanerie Palace, owned by the Grand Dukes of Hesse-Darmstadt. Reference: Die Mitgift einer Zarentochter.
