French Hors D’Oeuvres Spoon Pendant

Description

This unusual shaped, unique pendant started life as part of a French Hors D’Oeuvres serving set, although I was told that it would also have been used to serve ‘Fruits Confits’, the glace fruits that are created near the small town of Apt in Provence.

The spoon is beautifully engraved with a delicate leaf design that follows the shape of the bowl and this is recreated on the handle too.

It’s a really pretty piece with a great sense of French style and carries its original french hallmark, but has now been re-assayed in London so has a new Hallmark too.

The pendant hangs from a heavy  24 inch vintage silver chain

The pendant is 7cm long & 4.5 cm wide
