Ebenezer Moulton's "Sugar Bowl" (1810-1820) is a fine example of American silver craftsmanship. The bowl, with its rounded form and engraved monogram, is typical of the Federal style. The cover is a simple dome shape with a small knob. The piece is now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The piece is a fine example of the decorative arts of early 19th century America.
