Birth spoon 925 silver – duckling | Engraving included

This christening spoon, made of 925 sterling silver, features two playful ducklings on the handle and a birth clock at the tip of the handle. It makes an ideal gift for a birth, christening, or first birthday and has a special engraving concept: The fields for birth weight and birth height are on the back, leaving the front entirely dedicated to the motif and the birth clock.

Material and workmanship

At the tip of the handle sits a round dial with the numbers 12, 3, 6, and 9, framed by a simple, narrow ring. Directly below, two ducklings sit one above the other on the handle, sculpted in three dimensions with recognizable beaks, wings, and fluffy down. In the lower handle area, cloud and grass elements suggest a natural scene. The oval spoon bowl is highly polished and is suitable as a tea, dessert, or baby food spoon.

Occasions and target groups

Birth is the most obvious occasion for this spoon — grandparents, godparents, aunts, uncles, and close friends give it as a personal welcome gift. For a christening, a birth spoon with individual engraving is a traditional yet personal gift. For a first birthday, for anyone who wants to give a special gift belatedly — birth data can still be engraved even after twelve months.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

This spoon offers five engraving areas on two sides: On the front, the birth clock by diamond engraving and a narrow spot for a short name engraving. On the back, two fields for birth weight and birth height, and a lower area for name, date, or a dedication. Since several fields on two sides are processed individually, please contact us before ordering. Additionally, we offer a free, digitally designed SilberVerse card in photo format 15 × 10 cm (landscape format).

Care instructions

After use, rinse with warm water and mild dish soap, dry with a soft cloth. Silver can develop a natural patina, which can be easily removed with a silver polishing cloth. Not suitable for dishwashers — aggressive cleaning agents can damage the surface and engraving.

Frequently asked questions

Why are the fields for weight and height on the back?
This is a deliberate design concept: The front remains entirely dedicated to the motif and the birth clock, while the back becomes the data side with fields for birth weight and birth height.

How does the birth clock work?
The dial at the tip of the handle shows the numbers 12, 3, 6, and 9 without hands. Hour and minute hands are added by diamond engraving to precisely indicate the time of birth.

Can I give the spoon as a gift without engraving?
Yes. Even without engraving, the birth spoon is a complete gift made of 925 sterling silver, and the engraving can be added later at any time.
