Lidded Sugar Bowl and Saucer Set

This item consists of a white porcelain or bone china lidded sugar bowl and its accompanying saucer, likely part of a larger dinnerware set. Both pieces feature a delicate, intricate floral and foliate pattern in a light, muted color palette, possibly shades of gray, light blue, or faint pink, encircling the body of the sugar bowl and the rim of the saucer. A thin, elegant platinum or silver-toned band trims the upper rim of the sugar bowl, the base of its lid (though the lid is not fully visible, its presence is implied by the form of a sugar bowl), the outer edge of the saucer, and the foot of the sugar bowl where it meets the saucer. The sugar bowl has a slightly flared rim and two small, subtle spout-like indentations or handles, giving it a somewhat boat-like shape, often characteristic of gravy boats or creamer bowls, but given its pairing with a saucer, it's most commonly a sugar bowl. The porcelain appears to be in excellent condition with a smooth, glossy finish, showing no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear to the gilt or pattern. The overall design suggests a mid-20th century to contemporary style, often found in formal dinnerware. The craftsmanship appears to be of high quality, with precise application of the decorative elements and rim trim. The set exhibits a classic elegance, indicating it was intended for formal dining or tea service. No specific maker's marks or signatures are visible in the provided image, which would typically be found on the underside of the pieces.
