Provenance; by descent from Fred Bramley (1874 - 1925) via his second wife to her daughter to her daughter. Bramley was the second General Secretary of the British Trade Union Congress. He visited Moscow as part of a delegation of ten men in November and December 1924 that travelled some 7000 miles around Russia attending various meetings culminating in addressing the 6th Soviet Trade Union Congress. He was not a great orator but was a formidable negotiator. He died due to poor health while attending an International Federation of Trade Unions meeting in Amsterdam in 1925. By family tradition this set was given to him or his wife on the visit to Russia. Alexi Popov, a Moscow merchant took over the established firm of Karl Milli in 1811 and gave his name to the factory, which, together with his son, Dmitri, he personally built up and directed until he died in the 1850's. A decade later it was sold by the Popov family, and passed rapidly from one new owner to another. In the 1870s it belonged to an Armenian, and finally to a Russian merchant who liquidated the whole enterprise in 1875. Sazikov (1793-1877) - started by Pavel Sazikov and continued by his son Ignaty, a contemporary of Fabergé, were one of Russia's most important firm of silversmiths initially they opened a retail shop on Silver Row in Moscow but began manufacturing in Moscow in 1836 and St Petersburg in 1842. In 1887, Sazikov was taken over by Ivan Khlebnikov.
