These unusual Spoons are beautifully modelled in the Naturalistic style with branch handles decorated with detailed matted foliate motifs. The bowls are modelled as shells and the reverse of each bowl displays a leaf moulding where it is attached to the bowl. The spoons are identical, in excellent condition, and are very well marked. The set is contained within a later velvet and silk lined red leather case, which has contributed to their very fine condition.



Length of spoons: 5.15 inches, 12.88cm.
