The Dowry Service for Grand Duchess Catherine Pavlovna (1788-1819), daughter of Paul I, was manufactured between 1799 and 1802. The service is often called the Württemberg Service, because of Catherine's second marriage to Wilhelm of Württemberg, following the death of her first husband, Prince Peter Friedrich Georg of Oldenburg. Upon her remarriage in 1816, Catherine moved her household, including the porcelain from her dowry, to her new home in Stuttgart.

For further information about this service, see N.B. von Wolf (ed. V.V. Znamenov), Imperatorskii farforovyi zavod, 1744-1904, St Petersburg, 2008, pp. 162-166, and T.V. Kudriavtseva, Russian Imperial Porcelain, St Petersburg, 2003, p. 69, pp. 84-85.
