Gift set 925 silver porcelain boy gold 3-piece

A christening gift should be something lasting — but does it have to be limited to a single silver item that will only really be used years later? This 3-piece gift set for boys solves this contradiction: a porcelain cup with a drawn boy figure immediately becomes part of the child's daily life, while the 925 sterling silver spoon remains a keepsake for decades. Together with the matching saucer, it forms a set that is both useful and valuable.

Material and workmanship

The bone china of this set is thin-walled and has a fine, slightly translucent surface due to its bone ash content. The boy figure on the cup is executed in overglaze painting: after the first firing, the colors are applied to the glazed surface and fired at a lower temperature, which preserves the fine contours of the drawing. The 925 sterling silver spoon has a gilded ornament at the handle end, reflecting the golden accents of the cup and saucer. The collection is manufactured by ArgentA, a Russian manufactory specializing in combining porcelain and silver in children's gift sets.

Occasions and target groups

A silver spoon has been considered a classic christening gift for centuries — here, it is expanded into a complete set with a cup and saucer, which is also immediately useful in everyday life. In addition to christenings, this set is also suitable for births or first birthdays. Godparents who want to give more than just the spoon will find a well-rounded solution here; grandparents often appreciate that a lasting silver piece is part of the set.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

The silver spoon can be engraved upon request, for example with the child's name or christening date. The SilberVerse card is a perfect complement: a personalized card in photo format 15 × 10 cm landscape, currently free of charge. Tell us the name, date, or a short wish, and we will design the card individually — particularly popular for christenings, for example with the christening verse or the child's first name.

Care

Wash the cup and saucer by hand — the dishwasher can dull the overglaze colors over time. The silver spoon is also cleaned by hand and rubbed dry. For lasting shine, an occasional soft silver polishing cloth is sufficient. Please do not treat the gilded ornament at the handle end with abrasive cleaners, but rinse gently and dry.

Frequently asked questions

Is the set also available for girls?
Yes, from the same collection there is a variant with a girl motif on the cup and saucer — this allows you to put together a matching pair for twins or siblings.

Is the set also available in gender-neutral?
Yes, there is a colorful variant without a fixed gender assignment that suits every child — practical if you don't know the gender yet.

Is a silver spoon really a suitable christening gift?
The silver spoon has traditionally been a symbol of a sheltered life — hence the idiom "born with a silver spoon in one's mouth". In combination with a cup and saucer, it becomes a complete, everyday set instead of just a keepsake.
