About this work

The egg-shaped bowl of the spoon has a tapered end and is connected by a single leaf to the flat, curved stem on both the upper and lower sides, which widens towards the spatula-shaped end. The upper and lower sides of the stem are bordered by a double file edge, which is turned under at the end. The Clifford helm badge is engraved on the underside of the spatula of both the spoons and the forks.
