Material and Workmanship

The bowl of this serving spoon features the Astra ornament as a golden floral motif on the edge of a mother-of-pearl shimmering field — finely crafted tendrils and leaves that wrap around the spoon head. On the handle, the theme is repeated in a medallion with black niello infill on a light background, the typical contrasting play of this collection. The aster as a leitmotif stands for grace and durability — a symbol that goes well with a piece passed around at every meal. A hallmark confirms the 925 sterling silver quality, crafted in Russian silversmithing tradition.

Usage and Occasions

With a length of 260 mm and a wide bowl of 57 mm, this serving spoon reaches deep into any serving bowl and is suitable for serving vegetables, salads, rice dishes, or warm side dishes directly from the bowl or platter. Compared to the serving spoon from the same collection (271 mm), it is slightly more compact and therefore more versatile — ideal for medium-sized bowls at family meals as well as for festive tables at weddings or anniversaries. Combined with other Astra Classic pieces, a complete serving cutlery set is created piece by piece.

Engraving and SilberVerse Card

Engraving is possible upon request — we will coordinate the suitable area individually with the manufacturer. Upon request, we can also include a personal SilberVerse card in photo format (15 × 10 cm landscape) — individually designed, suitable for the occasion, and currently free of charge, also orderable independently of an engraving.

Care Instructions

Hand wash only with warm water and mild detergent, then dry with a soft cloth. Avoid dishwashers and abrasive cleaners — both can permanently damage the gilding and niello infill. A silver polishing cloth is suitable for occasional refreshing of the shine.
