ABOUT PRODUCTID 11479
This early 20th-century table spoon, crafted from silver-plated brass, embodies the classicist proportions and refined detailing of its era. The elongated, oval bowl and handle with a double, delicately incised border ending in a rounded spatula-shaped tip are characteristic of Austro-Hungarian design at the turn of the century. A subtle monogram or maker’s mark is engraved at the end of the handle. The surface displays a matte finish with a subdued, warm silver tone, enriched by gentle patina, fine scratches, and areas of darkening consistent with long-term everyday use. The construction is seamless and sturdy, with no visible repairs or structural damages. Condition: good, with authentic signs of wear and a noble patina enhancing its historical character.The form of this spoon evokes the atmosphere of a table where daily life was celebrated with an understated sense of ceremony. Soft reflections in the matte silver tell of gatherings and quiet meals, while the engraved monogram stands as a silent witness to generations past. Its patina and subtle marks narrate the passage of hands and time, turning a simple utensil into a vessel of memory and tradition.The spoon can be displayed in a classic cabinet or set on a formal table, paired with period porcelain and crystal glassware to create a harmonious, historical ensemble. In eclectic interiors, it may serve as a singular, authentic accent among contemporary accessories—placed on a linen tablecloth or used as a decorative serving piece, it highlights the value of craftsmanship and the continuity of domestic rituals.
