Creamer

Richards and Hartley Flint Glass Co.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Clear glass pitcher with handle on right side and spout on left. The pitcher has a wide mouth and a narrow base, with a small foot ring at the bottom. A floral pattern encircles the top third of the pitcher, while a band of flowers and leaves wraps around the middle. A small, textured decoration hangs down from the band on the right side, next to the handle. The handle is curved and attached to the body of the pitcher. The pitcher sits on a flat surface against a plain background.
