Covered Sugar Bowl 1879 - 1883

This "Covered Sugar Bowl" is a piece of American ceramic art from the Chelsea Keramic Art Works, a company active from 1872-1889. The bowl is crafted in a celadon glaze with a honeycomb pattern, giving it a sophisticated and textured surface. This piece is currently held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The geometric form and subtle green glaze are characteristic of the Aesthetic Movement which prioritized beauty and craftsmanship in art.
