Commissioned in 1809 for the Winter Palace and originally called the Russian Service, the Guriev Service was moved in 1848 to Peterhof for formal use in the Catherine House of Monplaisir, whereupon it was renamed for Count Dmitri Alexandrovich Guriev, director of the Imperial Porcelain Factory under Emperor Alexander I.
