It's now definitely Xmas Shopping time! Folksy is packed full of fabulous gift ideas and of course SPOONS are at the top of my suggestions list - they are long-lasting, planet-friendly, practical, postable and can be personalised to make the perfect gift for anybody, whether it's a budget buy for the office secret santa, a stocking filler for your partner, a joke present for your best mate or a classy offering for those well-off rellies who have everything (tip: I bet they don't have one of my spoons).
HOLIDAY DATES: Please note the shop will be CLOSED for Xmas from Tues 16 Dec to Fri 2 Jan inclusive so don't leave it too late to order your presents!

Full description
An antique pastry or sweetmeat server with an ornate handle and a flat wide head, which I've hand stamped round the edge with the Shakespeare quote 'THINGS SWEET TO TASTE PROVE IN DIGESTION SOUR.' Which gets better the more you think about it...
This would make a nice little gift for a literary and/or foodie friend - or for someone who is a bit cynical and old - maybe give it together with a selection of sticky sweets or tiny pastries? Baklava perhaps?
I will send the spoon shown in the photos. This is a vintage (or probably antique) spoon so it does show signs of age and wear and has lost practically all of its original silver plating so it's never going to come up shiny no matter how much you polish. Trust me. The black in the letters is water-based acrylic ink (not dirt or tarnish or Sharpie marker). Hand wash with care.
Size matters? Length approx. 15.5cm.
Designed by Lynn Davy in Dorset
