Creamer

Richards and Hartley Flint Glass Co.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a clear glass creamer with a blue tint. The creamer has a round base that tapers into a short stem, then flares out into a wide body. The body of the creamer is covered in rows of small, raised, clear glass bubbles. The rim of the creamer is scalloped and has a subtle blue tint. A handle is on one side, and a spout is on the opposite side. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
