Documented examples of Revere's fluted urn forms with his trademark paired-tassel decoration date from the mid 1790s. For example, two teapots in this pattern at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston appear in Revere's accounts in 1796 and 1797, made for the Hunnewell and Dall families. A covered sugar urn in this pattern is recorded in Revere's account book in 1793, made for James Sullivan, and was sold in these Rooms on June 2, 1990, lot 85.
