Full description

These two grumpy characters don't like festive cheer

So they wish you a Messy Xmas and a Crabby New Year!

A matching pair of vintage silver-plated (well, formerly silver-plated, they are very old and worn) 'apostle' coffeespoons, handstamped respectively with A MESSY XMAS and AND A CRABBY NEW YEAR.

Ideal small gift for anyone who is habitually grumpy at Christmaa!

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 and very worn and show many signs of age and wear. Have a good look at the photos if you think this is likely to bother you or the intended recipient. I wasn't happy with how the stamping turned out either and so these two are now in the Bargain Bin for a very Bargain Price. Also I always combine postage so if you wanted to pick up some more Bargain Spoons at the same time they'd then be even more of a Bargain! Just saying...

If you would like something different on an apostle spoon and can't already see one with the right wording in the shop, please let me know, they can be personalised with pretty much anything provided it'll fit in the space!
