    I recently picked this up at the thrift. It has NO markings inside or out, and it's quite heavy. Do you think it might be a hotel creamer? It measures 5.5" to the top of the finial. creamer22.jpg creamer1.jpg

    BEAUTIFUL!
    That or a club or personal large tea/coffee set maybe?

    Very pretty! Could be a creamer or even an individual pot, but whether it was intended for hotel use it's tough to say. The usual indicator is the presence of the hotel name or logo, which there isn't even a place for on this one.

    Can we see the underside and into the inside (both lid and body), please? Most likely silverplated at best, given the weight, but it's always good to check the odd spots for markings.

    Yeah, no logo, probably not commercial.
    I vote "individual serving teapot".

    Hotel markings are often on the bottom. Silverware is often marked on the back.

    Wrong shape for tea, honey.

    Here creamer24.jpg creamer23.jpg are two more photos-one of the bottom and one of the inside. There is a small, hard-to-see mark on the inside that looks like a small crescent. I don't know if it indicates anything.

    TIA,
