Full description
A matching pair of vintage silverplate 'apostle' coffeespoons handstamped with rude Latin mottoes in tiny little (1/16") capital letters. One says STERCUS ACCIDIT ("Sh-t happens") and the other FLOCCI NON FACIO ("I don't give a toss") - they are evidently cool with whatever life may throw at them!
The lettering is coloured black with a non-toxic, water-based acrylic ink. Hand wash only.
The spoons have matching bearded book-carrying robed 'apostle' figures on the terminals and are approx. 11cm long. Please note they are vintage (in fact I think probably antique) so they do show signs of age and wear. If signs of age and wear bother you, please do look elsewhere for your handstamped cutlery; there are plenty of shops out there stamping on mint condition silverware. Personally I like things with a bit of character and history. These two have been around a bit... who knows how many cups of coffee they've stirred and how much sh!t has happened to them in their long life? And yet here they are, still not giving a toss.
If you would like something different on an apostle spoon, please let me know, they can be personalised with pretty much anything (provided it'll fit in the space!) and it's fun letting them say things they wouldn't have been allowed to say in Victorian times when they were new...
