Creamer

Hugh Wishart

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The creamer is a metallic object with a handle on the left side and a spout on the right side. The handle is curved and attached to the body of the creamer. The body is bulbous with a smaller base and three small feet. The creamer has an engraved design around the top edge and a larger engraved design on the front. The design includes leaves and flowers. There are two decorative lines around the body, one near the top and one below the main engraving. The creamer appears to be made of silver or another metal and has a dark patina. The creamer by Hugh Wishart.
