A silver spoon features a shield-shaped bowl tapering to a point and a long, slender handle. The top flares into a rectangular ornament containing three silver leaves inlaid within green and blue enamel. Two leaves sit side-by-side above a central leaf. Fine vertical ridges texture the neck just below the colorful ornament. The bowl's polished metallic surface reflects light, contrasting with the detailed, organic patterns at the handle's tip.
