This design, pattern number 1350 is shown on page 7 of Sowerby's Illustrated Pattern Book No IX, issued in June 1882. This particular colour range was called Queen's Ivory, and contains small amounts of uranium in the glass, which cause it to glow bright green under UV light.

Condition

Has a couple of nibbles to the base "feet", shown in final pictures. These don't affect how the creamer stands (no loss of height on any feet).
