Thank you for visiting Looney Spoons! I've got spoons for all occasions and budgets, and since I hand stamp each and every letter myself - if you don't see exactly what you want, just ask me to stamp it for you. Personalisation makes a gift extra-special.
My prices haven't increased since 2021 and will remain fixed until the end of the year. I haven't increased my postage in line with the latest price hike either; it will remain fixed until the end of the year too. I always combine the postage no matter how many spoons you purchase... AND there are lots of bargains in the Bargain Bin already, with plenty more to come. I would like everyone in the UK to find a spoon in their stocking on Christmas morning!
Please note I'll be shutting the shop for my Christmas break on FRIDAY 13 DECEMBER - well before Royal Mail's last posting dates - so don't leave it too late to order your festive spoons. I'll be reopening on Monday 6 January.
We always use a knackered old spoon to warm the brandy to flame the Xmas Pud... so I thought other people might like a special dedicated spoon for doing the same!

Full description
If you like to set light to some brandy and serve your Christmas Pudding flaming in the traditional manner, how about this to warm the brandy over a candle beforehand? A hand stamped vintage silver plated spoon with the words 'BRANDY FOR THE FLAMING PUD' in the bowl. Slightly rude, enough to make the littlies giggle but not offend grandma!
I've tested a prototype with actual flaming brandy over an actual candle and the black water-based acrylic ink with which I've coloured the lettering stays put just fine.
This listing is for ONE spoon. You will receive the spoon shown in the photographs. It's approximately 15.5cm long and will hold enough brandy to flame a four-person pudding. And yes, it's a bit knackered... please read on...
Please note: your brandy spoon is a vintage art deco spoon from the 1930s (the number on the back of the handle indicates the design was registered in 1937) so it has been around a bit and has character. (For 'character' read 'tarnish, pitting, plate loss, dents, scratches and suspicious-looking stains.') It's a survivor. If you were looking for a mirror-finished brand new spoon, this isn't one. Just so you know. It doesn't really matter, since you're planning to set fire to it anyway.
