The egg was presented in 1910 to Countess Maria Ivanovna Velio, maid of honor to Empress Alexandra , whose family had a distinguished record of military and civil service to the empire.Young ladies who were appointed as maids of honor (freilini) to the Empress came from the most illustrious families of the Empire. Their fathers served with distinction in either the civil service, the military, or at court. The nomination was thus an honor for her father and her family at large, as much as it was for the young lady.
