Teaspoon Zodiac Sign Aries 925 Silver Gold Plated

Aries act rather than ponder — and this applies to gift-giving as well: a clear, elegant piece instead of many words. This 925 sterling silver teaspoon features the Aries symbol gilded in the bowl, the stem is entirely gold-plated, and the handle end is adorned with a niello ornament in dark contrast. Direct, high-quality, straightforward — just like the sign it bears.

Material and craftsmanship

The Aries symbol is engraved in the bowl of the spoon — the curved horns of the ram’s head, gilded and framed by a narrow border line. The entire stem is gold-plated, giving the spoon a uniform luster. The handle end features a niello ornament with floral scrolls: the black niello compound is melted into the engraved lines over an open flame, bonding firmly with the metal — permanent and abrasion-resistant. This niello hand-engraving continues the Veliky Ustyug tradition, which was first mentioned in writing in 1683. The teaspoon is hallmarked.

Use and occasions

As a teaspoon for coffee, tea, or a small dessert, this piece belongs to the adult silver tableware collection. Aries birthdays fall between late March and mid-April — right in the middle of the Easter season. The spoon is therefore just as suitable for a birthday as it is for Easter, a new beginning, or as a token of appreciation for someone in your life who is always the first to take action.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

Because the bowl already bears the Aries symbol, there is no additional space available there for a personal engraving. Instead, we offer the SilberVerse card: an individually designed 15 × 10 cm landscape-format photo card, tailored to the occasion and the recipient — created free of charge and as a unique item. It is included with the gift and provides the personal touch for which there is no room left on the spoon.

Care

Wash by hand, wipe dry, and store in a dry place. Silver polish should only be used on the gold-plated surfaces, not on the niello ornament. If the spoon is polished regularly, the contrast between gold and black will become even more pronounced over time.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Aries symbol mean in astrology?
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and represents courage, new beginnings, and energy. Its horns symbolize the will to move forward. On this teaspoon, the symbol is gilded and engraved in the bowl.

Is the spoon also suitable as an Easter gift?
Yes. Aries birthdays fall between March 21 and April 19, often close to Easter — the spoon therefore works as both a birthday and an Easter gift.

What distinguishes niello from a gold-plated engraving?
Niello is a dark alloy that is permanently melted into engraved indentations. The gold-plated surfaces are polished silver with a gold coating. Both techniques combined create the characteristic contrast of this spoon.
