Matthew West's "Bowl," created between 1784 and 1785, showcases the refined craftsmanship of American silversmithing. The bowl, crafted in silver, is adorned with delicate, hand-punched decorations and rests on three elegant, sculpted legs. This piece, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, exemplifies the refined aesthetic of 18th-century American silverwork, often characterized by understated elegance and detailed craftsmanship.
