I wandered into a Value Village recently.  This creamer was tucked away at the back of a shelf and at first I couldn’t see the etch, but the shape was intriguing.  I really like the solidity of the stem.

Didn’t know what it was but figured that it would be too hard to track down, and it wasn’t.

Turns out that the piece was made by Gillinder, likely in the late nineteenth century.  The etching is #14 and I gather it is commonly known as Deer and Dog.  It is difficult to capture the details, but the etch is comprised of two running deer, a hunting dog, a hunter with a gun and trees and grass.

Other than some light scratches there is no damage.  I always wonder how something so old and made of glass can survive more than 100 years of use and/or been shunted about.
