Sugar Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Sugar Bowl, by Meissen, is white porcelain with a rounded body and a short base. Two handles protrude from the body on either side. The lid is domed and features a decorative knob on top. A blue and gold line encircles the top edge of the body and lid. Two women are depicted on the body, one on the left wearing a blue dress and the woman on the right wearing a gold and brown dress. Between the women is a crest with a plant on top. The background of the image is dark grey.
