Creamer

William G. Forbes

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a creamer by William G. Forbes. The creamer is made of silver or silver-plated metal. It has a handle on the left side and a spout on the right side. The top of the creamer is slightly curved outward. There are two horizontal lines around the middle of the creamer, with an etched design between them. The creamer sits on a flat surface, casting a shadow to the right. The background is white, with a lighter shadow behind the creamer.
