Platter, 1745–55, Made in China, Chinese, for Swedish market, Porcelain, H. 3 in. (7.6 cm); Diam. 21 3/4 in. (55.2 cm), Ceramics, This monumental punchbowl, with its original cover and platter, must have been one of the most ambitious porcelains to grace an American colonial household. We can only speculate as to how the bowl, the decoration of which indicates that it was made for the Swedish market, found its way to a prominent Charleston family during the eighteenth century
