The Sophie Conran sugar bowl is formed in a compellingly rotund shape that harmonizes with the collection's cream jug and teapot. A lip at the rim holds in place the domed lid, which features an unusual knob and a cutout hole for a spoon. The durable, chip-resistant porcelain bowl and lid clean up without fuss in the dishwasher, and also may be used to warm food in a microwave or oven, for example, to liquefy crystallized honey. Combined with the creamer, the set makes a great gift for those who appreciate a rustic yet modern look on the table
