Superb Set 7 Italian 800 Silver Gilt City Souvenir Spoons Vatican Florence
Regular price
$224.00
Presented is a cute set of 7 antique Italian 800 silver souvenir coffee spoons. The spoons have gold washed bowls and twist form handles, with figural terminals themed around the symbols of various Italian cities or famous artworks—the crossed keys and mitre for the Vatican, the symbol for Florence, the Belvedere Apollo statue, etc. The terminals are nicely detailed despite their size, and some of these are much less common to see as part of a set of Italian themed souvenir spoons.
This set is in excellent overall condition. Minor wear to the gold wash of the bowls. There are no splits, no dents, no breaks, no monograms, and no repairs.
Each spoon is stamped 800 for the purity of the silver on the interior of the bowl.
Each spoon is about 5 inches long, though they do vary a bit, with the different terminals.
The total weight for the set is 83.5 grams. -jm
