Summary

This is a 3D scan of a Wedgwood sugar bowl from the collection of the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences. It is a Rosso Antico (red stoneware) sucrier (sugar bowl and lid), made by Wedgwood and Sons in Staffordshire, England, in about 1805. It is decorated with a frieze of Egyptian and pseudo-Egyptian symbols, made of Black Basaltes.

While porcelain played an important role in fashionable interior decoration and daily life in Europe in the 1700s, it was Josiah Wedgwood's pottery that had the greatest impact. A leading Staffordshire potter, Wedgwood produced an impressive range of vases, ornaments and tableware. Trend-setting classical designs, and Wedgwood's bold and inventive marketing, ensured the popularity of his wares.
