In 1856, shortly after ascending to the throne, Emperor Alexander II ordered additions to be made to the four Order services originally commissioned by Catherine II from the Gardner Manufactory in the late 18th century. On the additions, see A. Odom, Russian Imperial Porcelain at Hillwood, Washington, D.C., 1999, pp. 78-80.
