Harvey Lewis

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a silver creamer with a handle on the left side, a spout on the right side, and a base. The creamer is made of silver and features a handle with a leafy design at the top. The spout is curved and has a decorative edge. The body of the creamer is bulbous, with a narrow neck and a decorative border around the top. A crest is engraved on the front, featuring a shield with a bird on top. The base of the creamer is round and flat, with engraved text that is not legible. The creamer appears to be old and worn, with scratches and marks on its surface. The background of the image is white. The creamer is labeled as "Creamer by Harvey Lewis".
