This dessert spoon made of 925 sterling silver features the hand-engraved Libra symbol on the back of the bowl; the inside, which comes into contact with the dessert, is fully gilded. The handle is completely gold, with a floral niello ornament at the end of the handle, appearing as \"ink\" in silver. Three layers, one piece: silver, gold, and black niello.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs a gift for those born under Libra (September 23 – October 22), this is a gesture that suits the season—autumn in splendor.

It is not printed, but hand-engraved: each line was individually cut with a graver before the motif was gilded. You recognize Libra by the two balanced scales—the classic representation of the zodiac sign. The golden raised symbol stands out against the silver background. The inside of the bowl, which comes into contact with the dessert, is completely gilded—no symbol interferes with the gliding surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the end of the handle is a floral niello ornament—dark, matte black, inlaid into finely pre-engraved depressions. Niello acts like ink in silver: the black mass is not coated, but melted in and permanently bonded with the metal. The contrast of the gilded handle, gilded inside of the bowl, the engraved symbol on the back, and the matte niello makes the spoon a table companion that stands out as soon as someone serves dessert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLibra Energy at the Table — Air as an Element\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Roman tradition, Justitia carries the scales—a symbol of balance and justice. This imagery resonates without being explicitly spelled out—the golden shimmer on the handle picks it up and allows the motif in the bowl to become a small echo of the myth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAstrologically, Libra stands for balance, aesthetic sensibility, and the desire for harmony. Those who have a Libra at the table get a person who has a gesture for every occasion. A spoon with their sign is not a random gift—it hits the mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAs a Gift for Libra Born Individuals — Occasions with Meaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Libra's birthday falls between September 23 and October 22. A dessert spoon with the Libra symbol fits this moment: not an everyday gift, but a piece that finds its place at the first festive dessert and then remains in the display cabinet. Suitable for autumn birthdays and gifts for people who equally appreciate beauty and justice, for confirmation, anniversaries, or as a wedding gift for a Libra couple.

In the gilded symbol in the spoon's bowl, it becomes a visible gift—no letters, no saying, but a classic emblem from the tradition of zodiac representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor which birthdays is this dessert spoon suitable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe zodiac sign Libra covers birthdays from September 23 to October 22. For anyone celebrating their birthday during this period, the spoon is a gift with recognition value—their own sign, engraved in 925 silver and gilded. It works equally well as a godchild gift, for confirmation, or as a collector's item in zodiac cutlery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is niello and how does the black color hold on the handle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNiello is an ancient silversmithing technique from Veliky Ustyug: a dark silver alloy is melted into finely pre-engraved lines and permanently bonded with the silver. Imagine it like ink in silver—not a print, not a coating. The contrast remains for generations and becomes clearer with every polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs additional engraving possible?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe back of the bowl already features the hand-engraved and gilded Libra motif, the inside is fully gilded, and the handle shows the niello ornament. Additional engraving would damage the gold layer or the niello lines—therefore, it is not provided as a standard service. If you wish to include a personal message, a handwritten card for the gift box is suitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for the spoon?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nHand wash with mild dish soap, dry immediately. No dishwasher, no silver dips—the gilding and niello do not tolerate aggressive agents. Storing it dry in the gift case is sufficient for everyday use. If necessary, gently polish with a silver polishing cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: linear-gradient(135deg, #f8f6f0 0%, #fff 100%); border: 1px solid #e8e0d0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 32px; text-align: center; margin: 32px 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 1.1em;\"\u003e925 Sterling Silver · Gilded · Niello Hand-Engraving · Zodiac Libra\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/sternzeichen-geschenke-925-silber\" style=\"display: inline-block; background: #090302; color: #fff; padding: 14px 32px; border-radius: 4px; text-decoration: none; font-weight: 600; letter-spacing: 0.04em;\"\u003eView all 925 Sterling Silver Zodiac Gifts\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore 925 Sterling Silver Zodiac Gifts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n→ \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/sternzeichen-geschenke-925-silber\"\u003eAll 12 Zodiac Signs in 925 Sterling Silver\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n→ \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/silberbesteck-sternzeichen-925-silber\"\u003eSilverware Zodiac — Dessert Spoons, Dessert Forks, Teaspoons\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n→ \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/babygeschenke-sternzeichen-925-silber\"\u003eZodiac Baby Gifts in 925 Sterling Silver\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n→ \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/geburtstagsgeschenke\"\u003eBirthday Gifts in 925 Sterling Silver\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SevChern","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48217052774732,"sku":"SW10947","price":329.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/4783\/5212\/files\/dessertloeffel-925-silber-waage-niello-vergoldet.webp?v=1758741647","url":"https:\/\/premiumgeschenk.de\/en\/products\/dessertloeffel-sternzeichen-waage-925-silber-vergoldet","provider":"Premium Geschenkideen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
