Zodiac Sign Baby Gifts

A zodiac gift for a baby turns the day of birth into something that lasts: their first piece of silver, bearing the sign of the child. The spoon commemorates the moment it all began and accompanies the child from their first bite of porridge to their keepsake box. Here you will find all twelve zodiac signs, for both girls and boys.

Baby gifts with zodiac signs: the baby spoon for birth

The baby spoon from ArgentA comes from the DODO line and features its motif in colored enamel at the top of the stem. Below it sit the gold-plated zodiac symbol and golden stars. What makes it special are the tactile reliefs: on the stem, you will find a lattice ball, stars, and waves, and on the bowl, three raised dots. This gives little hands something to discover while having their first spoonful. It is delivered in a white case with a rainbow ribbon, ready for gifting.

All twelve signs are available as baby spoons; one example is the Leo baby spoon, and another is the Capricorn baby spoon. The enamel colors are cheerful and playful, while the silver remains quietly in the background.

The teaspoon in the same sign

If you would like to give a more classic gift, the teaspoon from SevChern is a great choice. Its silver bowl features a hand-engraved, gold-plated zodiac image, complemented by a gold rim and a gold-plated stem. At the end of the handle sits a floral ornament, its engraved recesses darkened with niello. It is the same motif as the dessert spoon, only smaller. One example is the Leo teaspoon.

And the parents? For them, we offer dessert cutlery and our 3-piece set in the same sign. You can find both in the Zodiac silver cutlery collection. This way, the whole family can wear the same sign.

What is your baby's sign?

Here you can see all twelve zodiac signs along with their dates. The linked signs have their own dedicated episode on our blog.

• Aries: 21.03.–20.04.
• Taurus: 21.04.–20.05.
• Gemini: 21.05.–21.06.
• Cancer: 22.06.–22.07.
• Leo: 23.07.–23.08.
• Virgo: 24.08.–23.09.
• Libra: 24.09.–23.10.
• Scorpio: 24.10.–22.11.
• Sagittarius: 23.11.–21.12.
• Capricorn: 22.12.–20.01.
• Aquarius: 21.01.–19.02.
• Pisces: 20.02.–20.03.

If your baby was born on a transition day, the exact time of birth is helpful. The cutoff dates are not defined the same way everywhere, so when in doubt, it is worth checking the neighboring sign.

When to give as a gift: birth, first tooth, baby shower, first birthday

The most beautiful moment is shortly after birth, when the child's sign is brand new. Afterward, there is still time: for the first tooth, a baby shower, or a first birthday. The spoon also makes a suitable, though secondary, christening gift. We have collected further ideas for the start of life under Gifts for Birth.

Christmas babies are a special case. Anyone born around the holidays is either a Capricorn or a Sagittarius; December 25th belongs to Capricorn. For a "Christmas child," the Capricorn sign is therefore often the most obvious choice.

Name and date: SilberVerse card or birth spoon

Custom engraving is not possible on the zodiac spoons. On the baby spoon, the stem and bowl are taken up by the relief; on the teaspoon, there is no free space left next to the motif. The gift still becomes personal: upon request, we will include a free SilberVerse card with a poem for the baby, which we write for the occasion and name. And if you would like the name or birth date to appear on the silver, our Birth spoons are designed for that purpose.

Care and handling

A soft silver cloth will remove slight tarnish. If necessary, warm water with mild dish soap is sufficient; afterwards, dry the spoon thoroughly. For the colorful enamel on the baby spoon: it is better to wipe it gently than to scrub it, and please do not use a silver dip bath. Please ensure your child only uses the baby spoon under supervision.

Frequently asked questions

What is the zodiac sign of a baby born in August?
Until 23.08., it is a Leo; from 24.08., it is a Virgo. For Leo babies, the Leo baby spoon is perfect.

Do the baby spoons have niello?
No. The baby spoon features colored enamel and gold plating. Niello is only found in the floral ornament on the handle of the teaspoon.

Are there versions for boys and girls?
For Aries, there are two versions, one for boys and one for girls. For Virgo, you will find several motifs to choose from.

Baby spoon or teaspoon: which is better?
The baby spoon is made for that very first meal, with enamel, tactile reliefs, and a case. The teaspoon is more classic and will accompany the child well beyond their infancy. Neither includes engraving for name and date, for which the Birth spoons are intended.

What can I give the parents to go with it?
Dessert cutlery or the 3-piece set in the same sign; you can find both in the Zodiac silver cutlery collection.
