This is a vintage pewter spoon. It is stamped Germany. I can find no other stamps or marks. It is a very light weight spoon and has a
distinct thud sound when tapped. There
is a small tear in the metal in the scoop part of the spoon and the surface of
the spoon is discolored. This is a old
spoon, it may qualify as an antique. I
do not know if it is a soup spoon or a small ladle.
Finding this spoon was a bit of a surprise. Clearly it is an old spoon as it is made of pewter and was intended for daily use; and it got daily use. It could be something that a family brought over from Germany, long ago.
