Teaspoon Zodiac sign Gemini 925 silver gold-plated

Geminis love things with a history — something that shows more than its surface promises. This 925 sterling silver teaspoon delivers exactly that: the Gemini symbol is gold-plated and engraved into the bowl, the stem features a continuous golden sheen, and the end of the handle is adorned with a niello ornament that adds depth and contrast to the piece. A gift that sparks conversation — and that is precisely why it resonates with this sign.

Material and craftsmanship

The Gemini symbol is engraved in the bowl — two parallel lines with connecting crossbars, gold-plated and framed by a fine border line. The stem is fully gold-plated. At the end of the handle, a niello ornament with floral scrolls completes the look: the dark alloy is fused into the engraved lines and bonds chemically with the metal — no lacquer, no abrasion. This hand-engraved niello comes from the Veliky Ustyug tradition, which has been documented in Veliky Ustyug since 1683.

Usage and occasions

As a teaspoon for coffee, tea, or a small dessert, this piece is part of the tableware for adults. As a gift, it is suitable for birthdays between late May and mid-June, for an outdoor summer party, for Father's Day in June, or as a graduation gift for someone who has just completed a major milestone. Geminis appreciate gifts that provide talking points — hand-engraved niello and zodiac symbolism provide plenty of those.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

Since the bowl already bears the Gemini symbol, there is no additional space available for a personal engraving there. As a supplement, we offer the SilberVerse card: individually designed in 15 × 10 cm landscape photo format, tailored to the occasion and recipient — free of charge and created solely for this occasion. It carries the personal message for which the spoon itself no longer has space.

Care

Rinse by hand, wipe dry, store in a dry place. Use silver polish only on the gold-plated surfaces, not on the niello ornament. With proper care, the gold-black contrast will remain vibrant for years.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Gemini symbol on the spoon mean?
The two pillars of the symbol stand for duality, communication, and the ability to take on different perspectives simultaneously. On this teaspoon, the symbol is gold-plated and engraved into the bowl.

For which occasions is this spoon particularly suitable?
Geminis have birthdays between May 21st and June 20th — the spoon is therefore perfect for early summer birthdays, as well as for Father's Day in June or as a personal thank-you.

What distinguishes niello from a gold-plated engraving?
Niello is a dark metal alloy that is permanently fused into engraved depressions. Gold-plated surfaces are polished silver with a gold coating. Both techniques combined create the characteristic contrast of this spoon.
