Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A caddy spoon is a compact utensil designed specifically to measure loose leaf tea from a storage caddy into a teapot. Emerging in the late eighteenth century, these specialized spoons became popular tableware items crafted in various ornate patterns.

Norwegian silverware from the mid-twentieth century was frequently crafted from 830 standard solid silver, containing 83 percent pure silver. This alloy provides ideal rigidity for detailed engraving and intricate pierced metalwork.

Authentic pieces carry stamped hallmarks on the reverse, notably the numerical mark 830S indicating silver purity. They often feature regional makers marks alongside architectural or cultural engravings standard to Norwegian production.

A silver caddy spoon can be displayed on a dining room sideboard, arranged on a tea tray alongside contemporary porcelain, or mounted inside a glass shadow box frame as decorative wall art.

Wash the silver gently in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth and dry thoroughly. Periodically remove natural oxidisation using a specialized silver polishing cloth rather than harsh abrasive dips.
