International Silver Co. Silver-Plated Creamer or Sugar Bowl

This item is a small, bulbous silver-plated vessel, likely a creamer or sugar bowl, featuring a scalloped or lobed footed base. The base is clearly stamped with the hallmarks of the International Silver Company, specifically the 'IS' insignia flanked by a crown and a shield, often associated with their silver-plated holloware lines. Below the logo, text indicates 'INTERNATIONAL SILVER CO' and possibly a specific pattern number or 'Silver Plate' designation, though some text is slightly blurred. The surface displays significant dark oxidation and tarnish, typical for vintage silver plate that has been stored in a humid environment without polish. The construction shows a smooth, rounded body tapering down to a decorative foot with rhythmic, undulating edges. The color is a matte, dark greyish-silver due to the heavy patina, with glints of light reflecting off the polished center of the base. No major dents or structural repairs are visible from the bottom view, though the presence of base-wear suggests frequent use. Based on the hallmark style and form, this piece likely dates from the mid-20th century. The craftsmanship is industrial-grade tableware intended for domestic or hospitality use, characterized by durable weight and traditional decorative motifs.
