Spoon Dish

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Spoon Dish by an unknown artist is a white, ceramic dish with a wavy edge. The dish has a flat bottom and a raised, decorative pattern on the inside. The pattern features a floral design with curved lines and shapes. There are two small handles on either side of the dish. The background of the image is light gray, with a slight shadow underneath the dish. The dish is centered in the image and takes up most of the space.
