Pressed Glass Creamer

This is a small, clear or very lightly tinted pinkish-hued pressed glass creamer, likely designed for serving cream or milk with coffee or tea. The creamer features a classic squat, bulbous body tapering slightly towards the top, with a defined pouring spout and an applied or molded C-shaped handle. The main body of the creamer is adorned with a series of vertical, elongated facets or ribs, creating a 'fluted' or 'cut glass' appearance, though the clarity and uniformity suggest it's pressed glass rather than hand-cut. The top rim of the creamer is smooth and rounded, blending into the spout. The interior appears relatively smooth. The handle is simple and unadorned, providing a functional grip. The base is not fully visible but appears to have a flat bottom, and the light reflection suggests a slight concavity or design on the underside. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear marks from the provided images, suggesting good condition. The manufacturing method of pressed glass often indicates a late 19th to mid-20th century production period. The subtle reddish or pinkish tint could be inherent to the glass composition, sometimes referred to as 'blush pink' or 'rose tint' glass, or it might be an effect of lighting. Without maker's marks, precise dating is challenging, but the style points towards a Victorian-era influence or a mid-century revival of such designs. It represents a common table accessory from that period, valued for its utility and decorative appeal.
