Creamer 1830 - 1840

"Creamer" is a silver pitcher made by the French silversmiths Belloni and Durandeau in the early 19th century. The creamer, which is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, is a fine example of the Neoclassical style popular in the period. It is characterized by its simple, elegant form and refined ornamentation. The creamer's graceful curves and smooth, polished surface reflect the prevailing taste for classical beauty and refined craftsmanship. It is a testament to the skill of the silversmiths and the elegance of the Neoclassical style.
