"Sugar Tongs" is a silver work by Thomas Warner, dating from 1802–05. This piece of functional silverware, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, reflects the elegance of early 19th-century tableware. The simple, yet refined design of the tongs speaks to the growing appreciation for understated beauty during this period.
