Sir James Wolfe Murray (1853-1919) was a distinguished officer in the Royal Artillery, gaining the eastern Command in 1916 until the end of the First World War. He had gained honours in Russia including the Order Of St Anne and the White Eagle. Pavél Ovchinnikov was one of the pioneers in the revival of the Russian silversmith's art of cloisonnne enamelling in the mid 19th century. This type of cloisonné work looked back to the Slavic traditions of the 17th and early 18th century Russian silversmiths. Ovchinnikov had opened his own workshops in Moscow in 1853, and his work was championed by Tsar Alexander II, whereby he recieved the Imperial warrant. This fame enabled him to open a branch in St Petersburg in 1873, in competion with Fabergé. Ovchinnikov's renown was further enhanced when he was awarded a gold medal for his silversmithing at the 1878 Paris Exposition.
