This extremely rare Biscuit Porcelain Caddy Spoon is unusually modelled as a beautiful shell, with deep bowl and raised scalloped edge.   The end is shaped up to a scroll for carrying and the reverse is finely textured to simulate the surface of the shell.  Porcelain Caddy Spoons are extremely rare.  Very few were made in the first instance, however due to their fragile nature, even fewer have survived.

Length: 1.9 inches, 4.75 cm.

Width: 0.9 inches, 2.25 cm
