This vintage Reed & Barton pitcher is a classic example of American silverplate hollowware, standing approximately 5 inches tall. The piece features a smooth, bulbous body with a h ighly polished silver finish that reflects its surroundings, though some natural age-related tarnish or "rainbow patina" may be present. Its design is defined by an ornate handle with a scrolled thumb rest, and flaring spout. Often identified as a creamer or a small individual water pitcher, this style of "hollowware" was manufactured by the renowned Taunton, Massachusetts-based company and is stamped with the number 967 on the bottom to denote the pattern. The heavy, solid construction makes it a durable yet sophisticated addition to a table setting, suitable for serving cream, milk, or water. Show more
