Something between a flying saucer and a flower, the Blue Bell sugar bowl has the kind of silhouette that makes you look twice.
- Maker: Noritake
- Pattern: Blue Bell #5558
- Materials: Porcelain, platinum rims and handles
- Origin: Japan
- Era: Vintage, 1954–1971
- Condition: Excellent condition — no cracks, chips, or visible scratches; platinum pristine. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
The shape is genuinely sculptural: a wide, low body with swept handles and a domed lid, all rimmed in platinum and scattered with soft blue bellflowers. The blue-and-white palette keeps it fresh and versatile; the platinum elevates it from casual to collected.
A beautiful standalone piece for a coffee tray or open shelf.
Introduced in 1954 and produced through 1971, Blue Bell landed squarely in the golden era of mid-century modern tableware, and its sculptural form reflects that design moment clearly.
A welcome addition for anyone assembling a Blue Bell service, or an ideal gift for the MCM enthusiast or Noritake collector.
