Covered Sugar Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a deep blue glass covered sugar bowl by Fenton. The bowl is made of shiny blue glass with a diamond-shaped pattern. It has a wide mouth and a short, narrow base. Two small handles are on either side. The lid is domed with a finial on top. The background is a gradient of blue to white. A black border surrounds the image. The image is likely a product photo.
