King Ferdinand I of Bulgaria (1861-1948) and Queen Eleonore visited St Petersburg twice in 1909-1910. Following the proclamation of Bulgaria’s independence in 1908, King Ferdinand wanted to secure an agreement with Russia for the preservation of peace in the Balkans. Both state visits included ceremonial state receptions and the exchange of gifts. These silver charges were presented by the St Petersburg City Council in 1909 and 1910 respectively.
