This antique lidded sugar bowl features an elegant, hand-painted calla lily against a clean white and subtly shaded background with a matching lid. The single-word "GERMANY" mark is highly characteristic of the era immediately following the McKinley Tariff Act of 1891, which mandated that all imported goods explicitly state their country of origin. This specific, unembellished format was widely used on porcelain exported to the United States from approximately 1891 until the 1920s.
