This icon appears to be a wedding gift from Princess Alexandra Obolenskaya (1851-1943), née Apraksina, to Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna (1882-1960) who married Duke Peter Alexandrovich of Oldenburg on 27 July 1901 at the Gatchina Palace. Princess Alexandra Obolenskaya was a close friend of Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna and a maid of honour to her mother Empress Maria Feodorovna.

Letters to Princess Alexandra Obolenskaya from Empress Maria Feodorovna and her two daughters Olga and Ksenia survived and were recently published. Alexandra is being continuosly addressed to as 'Aprak' after her maiden surname Apraksina. Depiction of the Russian double-headed eagle on enamelled roundels also suggests the imperial provenance of the present lot.
