1861 Antique Silver Dutch Sugar Sifter Spoon

A beautiful asset for any tea table, this early Silver Sugar Sifter Confection Spoon is exceptional and a rare find.

The sifter spoon has a fluted and intricately pierced bowl, with little "x's" and flower shapes. Meant for sprinkling powdered sugar over fruit or dessert - Muffins, Crumpets or Cakes. A gorgeous and sturdy piece to add to your collection of fine silver, and to add to your gracious entertaining.

  • Measures 7-1/4"l x 2-3/5" x 2-1/8" for the bowl.
