Superb solid silver spoon by the renowned goldsmith Buccellati.

The spatula and spoon are entirely covered with a ridged decoration reminiscent of shells or leaves. The reverse of the spatula is plain silver.

. Italian hallmark: 925 in an oval.
. Goldsmith's hallmark: a star; number 1; letters BO for Bologna.
. In full: Gianmaria Buccellati.
