Coffee spoon 925 silver gold-plated with hop niello motif

This coffee spoon made of 925 sterling silver is fully gold-plated and features a finely engraved hop motif — as a golden relief on the bowl, and as a darkly outlined drawing of cones, tendrils, and leaves on the handle. With a length of 93 mm and a weight of approx. 13 g, it is a small yet expressive piece for the coffee table.

Material and craftsmanship

The spoon is made of 925 sterling silver and is completely gold-plated — unlike partially gold-plated niello pieces, it does not show a silver-black contrast, but rather a consistent golden tone. The hop motif is engraved into the bowl as a floral relief; on the handle, it appears as a drawing with dark outlines on a light background. The hop plant is a rare motif in silversmithing, which gives the spoon a unique, recognizable character.

Use and occasions

As a fully gold-plated individual piece, this spoon is particularly suitable for festive occasions: as a gift for a wedding, a company anniversary, or as a token of appreciation for a special celebration. It also fits well as a small addition to an existing silver service or as a standalone collector's item for those who appreciate enjoyment and table culture.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

Since subsequent engraving would damage the gold plating of this spoon, we do not offer an engraving service for it. As a personal alternative, we are happy to include a SilberVerse card in photo format (15 × 10 cm landscape) upon request — individually designed, tailored to the occasion, and free of charge. This gives the gift a personal touch nonetheless.

Care

Clean the spoon exclusively by hand, without aggressive cleaning agents and without scrubbing. A soft cloth is suitable for drying. It is best to store the piece individually or in its case so that the gold-plated surface does not get scratched by other cutlery.
