Two-handled bowl

Jacob Boelen American

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 712

Similar in design to the larger example marked by Jessie Kip (23.80.17), this modest six-paneled bowl is ornamented with punched decoration and sturdy C-scroll handles. The three sets of initials engraved on its underside represent three previous owners and appear to have been added at different dates.

Two-handled bowl, Jacob Boelen (ca. 1657–1729), Silver, American
