Vintage Silver Demitasse Spoons with Bakelite Coffee Bean Finials Arthur Price & Co
This beautiful set of demitasse spoons feature a colored Bakelite coffee bean at the end. They are in their original box. Made by Arthur Price & Co Ltd. in Birmingham, England in 1933. These demitasse spoons were purchased by my grandfather when he went to England and Scotland in the late seventies. Each spoon weighs .3 ounces (8 grams).
I have chosen not to clean or polish these items. I love the beauty of the aged finish and patina and will leave it up to the buyer to clean and polish.
