This set of six German silver-gilt teaspoons and demitasse spoons dates from the Art Nouveau period around 1900. Each piece is crafted with a fluted shell bowl and an organic stem, featuring a butterfly and floral decoration on both the front and reverse of the finial. The silver-gilt finish shows good order commensurate with age, with gilding applied to the bowls. The spoons rest in their original dark brown leatherette presentation box lined with pale cream-coloured velvet and fabric, bearing the retailer name Harry Lohde Jeweller, Hamburg on the interior lid. Each spoon measures 10 cm in length. This boxed set suits display on a sideboard top in an English country house dining room or drawing room for special occasions or traditional tea service.

Art Nouveau silver teaspoons typically feature naturalistic motifs such as sinuous flora, flowing tendrils, and organic shell forms popularised during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

German silver flatware from this period was commonly struck or cast in solid silver grades such as 800 or 925 fineness, often featuring embossed shell bowls and chased stems.

Authentic pieces can be identified by standard period hallmark stamps indicating silver purity alongside jeweller or maker signatures printed inside the original fitted presentation case.

Display a fitted box open on a sideboard or vintage bar cart to serve as a functional decorative accent during tea service and formal dining.

Clean silver pieces with a soft cotton cloth and dedicated silver polish, and keep them stored inside the fabric-lined box to protect against oxidisation and surface scratching.
