Material and Workmanship

The blackening — technically oxidation — is precisely applied to the depressions of the relief. Where the polished silver transitions into the embossed shapes, a dark contrast is created that makes the unicorn, moon, and stars stand out in relief. At the end of the handle sits a three-dimensional unicorn rising in front of a round moon disc, with small stars incorporated as cut-outs. The handle features a flowing wave pattern with round indentations. In the spoon bowl, there are three subtle raised areas for touch and taste perception.

Occasions and Target Groups

A baby spoon made of 925 silver is traditionally one of the most significant gifts for a birth. As a first silver gift, it is timeless and gender-neutral. For a christening, it is a lasting memento from godparents or grandparents. For givers who value quality and a color-neutral design.

Care Instructions

Clean exclusively by hand with a soft cotton cloth. Avoid dishwashers, aggressive cleaning agents, and silver dip baths, as the latter would remove the blackening. The oxidized areas will naturally deepen over time and develop an individual patina.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is engraving possible?
No, both sides of the handle feature continuous relief decorations, leaving no free space for engraving. As a personal alternative, we offer a free SilverVerse card in photo format 15 × 10 cm (landscape).

Is the blackening safe for health?
Yes. Oxidation is a purely superficial process that creates silver sulfide — a proven, harmless finishing technique used for centuries.

Can the blackening wear off?
The blackening is located in the depressions of the relief and is well protected there. With normal use and gentle care, it will remain permanently.
