Baby Spoon 925 Silver – Ladybug with Tactile Relief on Both Sides

This baby spoon in 925 sterling silver bears a finely modeled ladybug in a round medallion at the end of its handle — with no enamel or gilding at all, just polished silver. It makes a lovely gift for a birth, christening or first birthday and is made for exploring by touch on both sides: the ladybug relief is embossed on the front and the back, so little fingers always discover something new. In almost all European cultures, the ladybug is regarded as a lucky charm and a symbol of protection.

Material and Craftsmanship

The ladybug sits embedded in a round medallion at the top end of the handle, with characteristic dots on its wing cases, a clearly recognizable head and delicate antennae. The figure is worked on both sides; below it, a wave-shaped relief pattern runs down the handle to the bowl of the spoon. As this spoon is made without enamel, its whole effect comes from the interplay of high-gloss polish and sculpted relief. 925 sterling silver consists of 92.5% fine silver.

Occasions and Recipients

A baby spoon in 925 silver is one of the classic gifts for a birth, christening and first birthday. As a motif, the ladybug stands for luck and protection — a companion that sends the child off with good wishes. For parents looking for a meaningful keepsake. For godparents who want to present a personal christening gift. For grandparents who want to combine tradition and affection in one gift.

Engraving and SilberVerse Card

The back of the handle is textured, and the ladybug is embossed on both sides and can be felt. There is therefore no free surface for an engraving — here, the relief is the highlight. For a personal touch, we offer the free, digitally designed SilberVerse card in 15 × 10 cm photo format (landscape).

Care

Clean by hand with warm water and mild dish soap, then dry with a soft cloth. A silver polishing cloth is enough to remove light patina. As this spoon is made without enamel, the entire surface can be polished up at any time. Not dishwasher-safe.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the spoon be engraved?
No. The back of the handle is textured rather than offering a free surface — in return, the ladybug can be felt from both sides, which is exactly what makes it so lovely for little fingers to discover. For a personal touch, we will include a SilberVerse card on request.

What sets the variant without enamel apart from the enameled version?
The classic variant shows the ladybug motif in 925 sterling silver; the enameled version adds red and black color areas to the relief on the wing cases.

What should I look for in silver for babies?
925 sterling silver consists of 92.5% fine silver and has a smooth surface that is easy to clean. Use baby spoons and rattles only under supervision, and clean them after use with warm water and mild dish soap.
