Pretty Enameled Bird Pendant, Vintage Silverplate Collector Spoon Handle - K0285
$22.5
$29.25
This beautiful pendant used to be a the handle of a collector spoon! It is silver plated brass, and features a Limoges-style hand painted bird in the shield-shaped handle. These spoons were first made in the 1950s by Klepa Arts in Czechoslovakia, and were usually part of a set that people would collect. Sets included birds, flowers, Delft and even copies of famous paintings! All the painting you see is original to the spoon. To make the pendant, I cut the bowl and shank off the spoon, grind and polish the cut edge smooth and then carefully drill a hole to accommodate a sterling jump ring. Since this is a real vintage item, there may be areas where the plating is worn, a few minor scratches and scuffs, or some minor chipping and crazing of the enamel. Consider it part of its vintage charm! A 17"-18" ribbon/cord necklace is included. If you would like a different color/style of necklace, go here to see available colors and styles.
