This porcelain sugar bowl with lid was created by the renowned Höchst Porcelain Factory in Germany around 1785. The factory, known for its exquisite craftsmanship, produced this piece as part of a "Solitaire" set, showcasing delicate hand-painted designs. This particular piece is adorned with a charming depiction of two hens and a rose on the lid, framed by intricate gilded details. The rich palette and detailed artistry exemplify the factory's mastery in porcelain production during the Rococo period. Today, this sugar bowl resides in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, a testament to the enduring beauty and artistry of the Höchst Porcelain Factory.
