This set of German Silverplate demitasse spoons in it’s original box were our Grandmother’s. She was born in 1908 in Germany. These spoons were a gift from my Great Grandmother to my Grandmother. Inside the cover of the original hinged box, my Grandmother had signed in what looks like pencil her name and dated it 1936. It reads, “Friedel Kohn, 1936″ as pictured. That was her maiden name. Each of these demitasse spoons are stamped on the handle in the middle with “20”. The measurements of each spoon are 4-1/4″ long x 13/16″ wide at the spoon bowl. The bottom of each spoon bowl also has a design adding to the exacting detail of these antique spoons. Each of the spoon bowls have a subtle gold wash. The gold wash finish is only on the spoon bowls. Included is the original hinged navy box with linen interior and slots to store the spoons. There are 11 spoons in the box. My mother told me that they she had never seen these spoons used through the years. I believe this was a special gift that my Grandmother treasured and kept safe throughout her life.
