This Cleone by International berry or large serving spoon is 9 long and weighs 186 grams, or 6 troy ounces– a really heavy berry spoon. Cleone was, in Greek mythology, the niaid-nymph of the fountain of the town of Cleonae in Argos, and the daughter of the river Asopus, so it’s appropriate that the ears of the face that decorates the end of the handle are in the form of water lilies (though the ace looks distinctly masculine to me with it’s beard in this rendering). Water lilies and leaves are intertwined with Cleone’s hair on both sides of the handle; and the water lilies and leaves cover both shoulders of the bowl. There is a small script monogram GCE situated horizontally on the spoon’s handle. On the back, the spoon is marked for International and sterling. This item is in the category “Antiques\Silver\Sterling Silver (.925)\Flatware & Silverware”. The seller is “viwalker” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
