$70.00
An intriguing example of late nineteenth-century figural silver, this 1891 sterling silver demitasse spoon features a finely modeled Native American figure as the terminal. The small-scale form reflects the Victorian-era fascination with historic, cultural, and figural themes in decorative arts, when specialized spoons often served as miniature expressions of artistry and symbolism.

An appealing piece for collectors of figural flatware, demitasse spoons, and nineteenth-century American silver, this example offers both decorative charm and historical interest.
