Sugar bowl

C. Ihmsen Company American

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 706

Each of the nine panels of this sugar bowl illustrates a different pressed-glass piece: a decanter; a goblet; a sugar bowl; an ale glass and spill holder in the “Excelsior” pattern; a decanter in the “Ashburton” pattern; a goblet in the “Flute” pattern; and a spill holder and hexagonal candlestick in the “Star” pattern. The bowl was probably used as an advertisement of some kind, perhaps one sent to glass
distributors.
