Georgian Sunderland blue wrythened glass sugar bowl

This is a Sunderland blue, Georgian, wrythen-moulded sugar bowl dating from the turn of the 18th/19th centuries, c1800. The bowl is in excellent condition for its age.

The bowl measures 11.5 cm (4.6 inches) in diameter at the turned inward rim. The bowl is wrythen-moulded and sits on a small extruded foot which measures 5.3 cm (2.1 inches) in diameter. The bowl is 5.5 cm (2.2 inches) in height. There are a few small inclusions in the metal of the bowl dating from manufacture. There are no chips, cracks, other significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration. It weighs 75 g. (~ 3 oz.). Quote item: 8593 Please note: 1. All prices quoted are exclusive of postage.
