Description

I ship only by USPS Priority Mail & Express Mail, no exceptions. I NEVER ship silver in envelopes. I neither solicit nor accept offers. Listed items will not be marked down during the listing duration. Offered here is a set of 6 tablespoons/serving spoons with the maker's mark ALPAKA No 41. Alpaca is the usual spelling for this kind of silver. The composition is normally a metal alloy is made up of copper, zinc and nickle. However, these pieces have been silverplated over these base metals. The country of origin is uncertain, although I would say it is probably Germany. The oval soup/dessert/place spoon is as versatile as its many names. This spoons is perfect for eating brothy soups, pudding desserts, and other foods for which a spoon is needed, but when a teaspoon is too small. The 6 oval soup dessert place spoons offered here measure about 7”. These are not pieces of new silver. They show the patina of many years of careful use. There are the light scratches which constitute normal patina. There is no monogram. Silver is softly lustrous. These pieces are silverplated over Alpaca silver. The pattern is crisp and clear. These spoons have been carefully used and well cared for. I polish all silver before listing on eBay. Please email with any questions before bidding.
