Baby spoon 925 silver & enamel – horse with apples black-blue

Baby spoon 925 silver & enamel — horse with apples black-blue

The same spoon, a different character. The entire handle is shaped like a standing horse—with a black mane in clear stripes, a friendly face, and colorful enamel apples scattered across its body. No added motif, no small symbol at the end: the horse IS the handle. Where the orange-red version appears warm and vibrant, the black-blue version emphasizes contrast: the black mane gives the horse a calmer, more elegant expression. The apples in blue, green, and yellow gleam on the polished silver like colorful splashes. This baby spoon from the DoDo Tactile Collection combines tactile discovery with a child's first own cutlery set made of 925 sterling silver.

Black mane, cool elegance — the design concept

Most baby spoons have a motif at the end of the handle—a bear, a star, a heart. This spoon takes a different approach: The entire handle is modeled as a three-dimensional horse. From the hooves with black stripes, over the body with colorful apples, to the comb-like black mane that extends from its head to its neck. The horse's face, with black eyes and a pink muzzle, looks friendly—a playmate that's also a piece of cutlery.

The black and blue variant differs from the orange and red version in its cooler color palette . The black mane gives the horse a calmer, almost contemplative expression. The apples are colored in shades of blue, green, and yellow—less fiery, but more harmoniously coordinated. This makes the horse appear more elegant, almost like a mature counterpart to its orange sibling.

For little hands, this means tactile discovery. The different surfaces—smooth spoon bowl, textured mane, raised apples—invite touching and grasping. The horse sits securely in the hand, making the spoon an object children love to hold.

Material and workmanship

The baby spoon is made of 925 sterling silver — the internationally recognized standard for high-quality silver. The material is food-safe, tasteless, and suitable for everyday use. The polished spoon bowl has a smooth, easy-to-clean surface.

The colored enamel elements—mane, apples, and hooves—are applied individually and fired at high temperature . Each apple receives its color in a separate step. The result: vibrant, long-lasting colors that won't flake off under normal use. The black mane contrasts sharply with the polished silver, giving the horse its distinctive, calm character.

Special features

• Handle as a figure: The entire handle is a three-dimensional horse — not an added motif, but a fully sculpted piece.
• Colorful enamel apples: Each apple individually painted in blue, green, and yellow with a small leaf — each one different, each one unique.
• Black mane: Comb-shaped stripes from head to neck give the horse a cool, elegant expression.
• Tactile experience: Different surface textures invite little hands to explore.
• Symbolism: Horse = freedom and strength, apples = health and new beginnings — a gift with meaning

• 925 sterling silver: Food-safe, durable, tarnish-resistant with regular care.

Engraving service — personal and on request

A personal engraving transforms the baby spoon into a keepsake. A name, date of birth, or a short message—engraved on the back of the spoon bowl—makes it a truly personal gift. It's a particularly lovely idea for twins: each child gets their own spoon in a different color—with their own name.

Engraving is available upon request. Please contact us or use our engraving service to let us know your requirements.

SilverVerse Card — our personalized gift card: Upon request, we will create a custom SilverVerse card in photo format (10×15 cm) — tailored to the occasion, the recipient, and with your personal message. Each card is unique. Simply specify your request when ordering, and we will contact you to discuss the details. Currently free of charge — available with or without engraving.

Two variants — like twins

This baby spoon is available in two color schemes:

• Black-Blue (this spoon, SW10688): Black mane, apples in blue, green and yellow — cooler, more elegant, high contrast
• Orange-Red (SW10687) : Orange mane, colorful apples in red, green, yellow and pink — warm, bright, cheerful

Both spoons have the same shape, the same friendly horse face, the same apple distribution. The difference is minimal— like twins: almost identical, but each with its own personality. That's precisely the concept: two horses, two colors, one family.

Every child recognizes their spoon by the color of its mane. For parents of twins, the horse duo is the ideal gift—matching yet individual. And when the second child arrives? Then the second horse joins the family.

Care

Rinse the baby spoon with warm water and mild dish soap after each use and dry with a soft cloth. The enamel elements are fired at high temperature and can withstand normal cleaning. A silver polishing cloth is sufficient for light patina on the silver surfaces. Not dishwasher safe. The gift box is suitable for storage when the spoon is not in daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between black-blue and orange-red?
