Comments

Made of sheet iron, this bowl has a square base soldered to shaped sides.  The sides are made by folding corners, crimping the edge, and folding down the high-arched sides, thus forming a shallow bowl.  It was marketed as an “apple tray” and acquired by Winterthur for the Study Collection.
