Some special venues and programs

Special Tour of Imperial Porcelain Factory

In 1844 the Imperial Porcelain Factory in St Petersburg, founded in 1744 on the orders of Empress Elizabeth, reached its 100th anniversary. To mark the occasion, Emperor Nicholas I gave orders for the opening of a museum of Russian porcelain attached to the factory. Precursors of this notable event were the exhibitions of classic specimens of the factory's production held in 1837-38. These were a great success with the public and were accompanied by the sale of porcelain items.

A visit to the Imperial Porcelain Factory usually included an interesting tour of the museum and the factory's artistic workshops at the end of which honored guests received some porcelain trinkets as a souvenir.

In addition to excursion we can organize tea drinking from art products and the master-class of painting porcelain cups.
