Early American Preserved Glass (EAPG) Creamer

This item is a clear pressed glass creamer, characteristic of Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG) from the late 19th to early 20th century. The piece features an intricate 'Whirling Star' or 'Pinwheel' geometric pattern deeply molded into the body, surrounded by hobnail accents and fanned ridges. It has a sawtooth or scalloped rim that transitions into a defined pouring spout. The glass is thick and heavy, typical of the era's manufacturing processes. The creamer stands on a low, circular pedestal base which is also decorated with radial geometric carving. The applied handle is notched for better grip, a sign of higher quality craftsmanship in pressed glass. Visible condition is good, showing high clarity with minimal clouding, though some minor flea bites or surface scratches may be present along the sharp edges of the sawtooth rim consistent with age. There are no significant cracks or large chips visible. The glass exhibits a slight greyish-yellow tint under certain light, common in antique soda-lime glass formulas. While no maker's mark is immediately visible in the image, the pattern styling is indicative of American manufacturers like Imperial or US Glass Company from circa 1890-1915.
