Vaseline Pearline Creamer
« on: November 16, 2010, 04:40:08 PM »
Hello

Sorry there is no photo with this one but imagine, if you will, a typical Victorian pearline vaseline creamer (greeny yellow glass at the bottom and solid yellow/cream towards the top and rim).  Now imagine it in a shell design, and a spiral shell instead of a handle (though not an obvious place in which to hold it).

That all sounds mad now I've written it down.

If anyone has ideas of a factory or can provide a link to similar, then I would be most grateful.

Thanks,
Stuart.

It sounds like something Northwood would do!  :-\

My thanks to you both, but I still haven't seen the likes of it anywhere else.  Have been looking all evening now... which feels wrong somehow... will starts again tomorrow.

American sounds likely; could be modern (in which case it may be marked) or older. A sketch might help
