About this work
The two identical, oval, scalloped sauce bowls (A and B) with slightly rising sides each rest on four feet consisting of a C-volute curled at the bottom and top. They have two hinged handles built from C- and S-volutae. Profiled edges are applied along the top and halfway down the body.
