Great Paris souvenir spoon imported from Germany.
<p>On the handle of this beautiful silver spoon is a rooster, symbol of France. The word Paris
is in enamel and red and white enamel bands run down the
handle. In the bowl is a representation of the Palais
Trocadero. It was built for the Exposition of 1878 and
demolished in 1937 to make way for the
Palais de Chaillot.
<p>On the back of the rooster is stamped .900 (or
.800) Import d'Allemagne with French guarantee mark.
We find the fact of a
French souvenir spoon imported from Germany intriguing to say
the least. Especially given the animosity between these nations
during the period this spoon was manufactured.
<p>5 inches long.
<p>Very good used condition. No dings or dents.
Some missing red enamel.
<p>Circa late 19th to early 20th C
<p>Please see our inventory for more souvenir silver spoons
and antiques of all kinds.
