From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record
In 1949 this bowl was given to James Ford Bell by his business associates at General Mills in celebration of his 70th birthday. The silversmith who made the bowl, Philip Syng, is perhaps best known today as the maker of the inkwell used to sign the Declaration of Independence. United States, Americas
