this is a silver punch ladle with turned wooden handle made in Frankfurt am Main(Germany) around 1830
by silversmith Johann Philipp Hoffmann (1794-after 1842), Master 1827 (ref. Schleffler, Hesse, Frankfurt aM

This punch ladle is 10 in. long (cm. 25) and was bought from an English dealer through the Internet.
This item is not for sale, but most of my pieces were bought through the Internet.
