George H. Bowman & Son 22K Gold Encrusted Creamer and Covered Sugar Bowl Set
This is a vintage two-piece tableware set consisting of a creamer and a matching lidded sugar bowl, both featuring a heavy 22K gold encrusted finish over a fine porcelain or china base. The items exhibit a lustrous, highly reflective metallic gold exterior that is characteristic of early to mid-20th-century American decorative ceramics. The creamer has a rounded body, a curved pouring lip, and a loop handle, while the sugar bowl features two scroll-style handles and a fitted lid topped with a decorative finial. The interiors of both vessels remain a clean, glazed white porcelain. Given the 'Geo H Bowman & Son' attribution, these pieces likely date from the 1920s to 1940s. The gold application appears thick and high-quality, though there is visible minor surface scratching and light wear to the gilding consistent with age and occasional use. There are no immediate signs of major chips, cracks, or professional repairs visible in the current view. This style of 'encrusted' gold was a popular luxury wedding gift during the Art Deco era, often produced by companies like Pickard, Stouffer, or Bowman.
