Handmade Silver Spoon “Willow”

Description

A long, slender silver spoon with a beautifully twisted stem, at home with coffee, tea or a tall latte or iced glass. Its graceful lines and delicate openwork handle make it a refined silver wedding gift, and a memorable silver wedding anniversary gift for a couple marking twenty-five years together.

Every Willow is worked entirely by hand in Lefkara, the Cypriot village famous for its silver filigree, and joins our handmade silver spoons collection. It is made from solid silver, the twisted stem opening into a pointed teardrop of fine openwork edged with tiny silver beads, polished and hallmarked. To keep it gleaming, store it dry and buff it now and then with a soft silver cloth.

Marking life’s big moments with a gift of silver is a tradition shared the world over, from British and Nordic celebrations to Greek, Cypriot and Slavic homes. Silver has long stood for purity, protection and good fortune, and because it endures it is meant to be used and handed down rather than put away.

Add a name or a date and Willow becomes a true family heirloom, gift boxed and ready to give for a wedding, an engagement or a silver anniversary.
