This set of six antique caviar and dessert spoons, handcrafted from natural white mother-of-pearl, dates back to the 19th century and originates from South or Southeast Asia, reflecting the colonial-era tableware traditions. Each spoon is shaped from a single piece of carefully selected nacre, finished to a high gloss that reveals the iridescent white, cream, and beige tones characteristic of premium mother-of-pearl. The design is minimalist and refined, with gently rounded bowls and straight, flat handles – devoid of metal fittings or ornamentation, in line with late classical and colonial aesthetics. The proportions are delicate and balanced, with each spoon measuring approximately 11 cm in length and 2.6 cm in bowl width.
