Covered Sugar Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Covered Sugar Bowl by American Glass is a clear glass bowl with a lid. The bowl features a wide mouth and a short pedestal base. The lid is dome-shaped with a small finial on top. The entire piece is covered in an etched and engraved Gothic Revival design. The design includes pointed arches and leaf-like patterns. The bowl and lid have a textured surface with small bumps and ridges. The piece sits on a flat surface with a shadow cast to the left. The background is a plain light-colored wall.
