Sugar Bowl 1822 - 1825

"Sugar Bowl" is a silver sugar bowl created by American silversmith John McMullin in 1822-1825. It is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. McMullin's work was known for its exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail, and this sugar bowl exemplifies his artistry. The bowl features a rounded, fluted body with two delicate handles, a domed lid, and a slightly flared base. The intricate details, including the delicate beading around the rim and the clear crystal finial on the lid, speak to the quality of McMullin's work and the high standards of American silversmithing in the early 19th century.
