This 5-1/2" commemorative spoon was produced in celebration of the 350th anniversary of the Mayflower voyage. It is an authentic reproduction in heavy sterling silver of the old, graceful, simple Pilgrim shape spoon and features the Mayflower ship in gold at the end of the handle. I believe it was handcrafted by the Royal Dutch Gold and Silver Works, Holland and England (marked England), imported through The Worcester Silver Co., Inc. and comes in the original presentation case. The spoon has never been out of case ~ just needs a little polish.
