Description

This is a decorative serving spoon made of mother-of-pearl (shell) with a metal handle. The bowl is formed from a natural shell, giving it beautiful iridescent tones in white, pink, and cream. The reverse side features a subtle engraved leaf motif, suggesting hand-crafted detailing.

The handle appears to be metal, possibly silver or silver-plated, with small rivet details at the joint. A small hallmark is visible but unclear—if confirmed as silver, this would increase the value.

Typical use:

Serving sugar, salt, or spices
Small delicacies such as caviar or jam
Decorative tableware

Age and origin:

Likely circa 1900–1930
Commonly European (France, Italy, or Germany)

Condition:

Good condition with light wear and natural patina
No obvious damage to the shell
