With its clean, unornamented lines, this Lehman Brothers pedestal sugar bowl leans more modern than most silverplate from its era — note there is a dent on one side, detailed in the Condition bullet below.
Maker: Lehman Brothers Silverware Corp.
Materials: Silverplate (Silver on Copper)
Dimensions: 5.5" tall, including lid finial
Origin: New York, USA
Era: Vintage, 1930s–1940s
Condition: Good — a dent on the lower half of one side, photographed at different angles for your review; otherwise very nice, with only the minor surface scratches typical of vintage silver. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
This pedestal-style bowl comes with its original lid and handles intact, and the silverplate finish remains bright and shiny overall. The absence of heavy ornamentation makes it a versatile fit for modern, minimalist, or traditional table settings alike — there's real beauty in how little it's trying to do.
Displayed with its good side facing out, set to work on a coffee station holding sugar packets or teaspoons, this bowl still has plenty of life in it. Its simple silhouette means the dent is easy to work around rather than something you have to build your whole display to hide — it's too pretty a piece to pass up over one imperfection.
Lehman Brothers Silverware Corp. was a New York manufacturer incorporated in 1925, producing silverplate hollowware and flatware recognized by its distinctive lion-and-unicorn hallmark. This piece's silver-on-copper construction, rather than the more common silver-on-nickel base, reflects the company's material choices and gives pieces like this one a bit more heft and warmth in the hand — genuinely uncommon among surviving examples from the maker.
