A SMALL COLLECTION OF ANTIQUE SILVER AND OBJECTS OF VERTU |
silver folding spoon (medicine spoon) - Italy
this is a silver folding spoon with a winged lion on the handle. The winged lion with aureole and Gospel
book is the crest of the ancient Republic of Venice (Italy). The spoon is marked 800 ((800/1000 purity
degree) and was made in Italy in the first half of 20th century.
The caddy spoon is 3 1/4 ins. long (cm. 8) and was bought by a US dealer through the Internet.
This item is not for sale, but most of my pieces were bought through the Internet.
