Creampot

Joseph Edwards Jr. American

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 774

Three-legged creampots with elongated pouring lips and scrolled handles are among the most charming hollowware forms produced in mid-eighteenth century America. Joseph Edwards Jr. was born into a family of successful Boston silversmiths, under one of whom he likely trained.
