Author	Topic: Georgian Pedestal Sugar Bowl?
nautilusjv Posts: 253 Registered: Nov 2008	posted 03-19-2017 10:14 AM Is the pedestal sugar bowl a common form in Georgian silver as compared to the more dominant boat shape? Or is it uncommon? Question: Is it okay to post here a photograph that a dealer published on Facebook? Thanks! IP: Logged

After that we begin to see the 19th century (leading to Victorian) "anything goes" as far as fashion is concerned. Before c.1780 circular sugar bowls were the most common form. whether on a pediment, footed or with legs. IP: Logged
