Material and workmanship

At the upper end of the handle, the gold-plated Orthodox cross is enthroned, surrounded by curved pink enamel lines. In the center is the guardian angel in silver, depicted praying or protecting, below it a delicate sun motif with ornaments. The enamel is applied in several layers and fired at high temperatures — a durable, color-stable surface that neither flakes nor fades. The spoon belongs to the DoDo collection by ArgentA and comes in the characteristic DoDo gift box with a rainbow motif, white satin, and a pink ribbon.

Use and occasions

This spoon is intended for Orthodox baptism — often a gift from the godmother, who uses it to express her responsibility for the spiritual well-being of the child. It is also a popular gift in Orthodox families for births, often from grandparents as a sign of the transmission of faith. The guardian angel symbolizes the belief that everyone receives a personal protector at baptism who accompanies them through life. In Christian symbolism, pink is the color of love and security — traditionally chosen for girls, even if this assignment is no longer mandatory today. For a boy, you will find the matching variant in blue-gold.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

The back of the handle has an Orthodox embossing, which means that classic engraving is not possible on this spoon. As a personal touch, we offer a SilberVerse card in photo format (15×10 cm landscape) instead — individually designed, suitable for the occasion and currently free of charge. Simply state for whom it is and from whom it comes when ordering, and we will design it for you.

Care

Clean the spoon by hand with warm water and mild dish soap, then dab dry with a soft cotton cloth. For light patina on the silver, a silver polishing cloth is sufficient. Gold plating and pink enamel cannot tolerate aggressive cleaners or abrasives. Not dishwasher safe. Store the spoon in the included DoDo box, this protects it from scratches and tarnishing.

Frequently asked questions

What do the symbols on the spoon mean?

The gold-plated cross stands for salvation, the guardian angel for divine assistance at baptism. The pink enamel symbolizes love, compassion, and security.

Is this spoon also available for boys?

Yes, in blue-gold — same shape, same symbolism, with blue instead of pink enamel accents.

Can the spoon be engraved?

Due to the Orthodox embossing on the back, engraving is not possible. As an alternative, we recommend the personalized SilberVerse card.
