Each spoon measures 9.8 cm long by 1.9 cm wide, whilst the tongs measure 10.2 cm long, giving a combined weight of 40 grams excluding the case. At home today, this boxed set serves well for entertaining guests during after-dinner coffee service, displayed upon a dining table or sideboard top. The polished silver contrasts with the dark bean finials and the pale fitted interior of the storage box, presenting a complete ensemble for collectors of vintage tableware.

FAQs

Coffee bean spoons are small demitasse spoons featuring a terminal shaped like a coffee bean, popularised in Britain during the early 20th century, particularly during the Art Deco period.

These spoons were typically crafted from sterling silver or silver plate, with finials made from moulded composition materials, Bakelite, or carved synthetic resins designed to imitate coffee beans.

Authentic British silver pieces feature official hallmarks stamped on the stems or bowls, denoting silver purity, assay office, date letter, and makers mark.

Cased spoon sets can be displayed open on a sideboard top, placed inside a glass cabinet, or incorporated into a dining presentation or home bar setup.

Wash by hand using warm soapy water, dry immediately with a soft cloth, and polish silver areas with a dedicated silver cloth while avoiding chemical dips on non-metallic finials.
