About this work
The two handles, one in the shape of a pointed oval spoon bowl, the other in the shape of a five-tined fork, are connected by a single leaf to the flat, curved stem that widens towards the center, which consists of two parts. These are connected to each other by a screw, on which a spherical knob can be attached to hold the whole together. From a third of the length, the stem is set off on the upper side with gadrooned edges. The knob is ribbed all around.
