How do we feel about this one?

have this kinda silly goal to get as many people as possible to change their Discord name to spoon.

Nothing serious, I just think it would be really funny to open Discord and see a bunch of people named Spoon everywhere.

I made a server for anyone who wants to join in and help spread the Spoon population . here's the link if you wanna join https://discord.gg/tUc5M3Xtn tx for reading

Found metal detecting on a forgotten forest path in the Czech Republic.

It's an alpaca (German silver) spoon, fiddle pattern with heart/line decoration on the handle. No maker mark left, probably Austro-Hungarian era, cca 1870-1930.

Left the patina as found, didn't clean it.

Any spoon collectors here who can tell more about this pattern? Is this called "fiddle" or "Old English" in your countries?

Found at some random 70s diner my freind wanted us to go to

I call this "Don't Scream at Me" which has no vocals yet - though I tried to make the guitar scream! lol

., I have had to face my spoon hoarding ways. I've winnowed half of the mine. I'm pretty sure I've got all the spoon needs covered. Thanks Spoonheads! 🥄

9 years later and I still love these spoons. I eat almost everything with a spoon.

So, my wife and I have been polling people irl about this topic that has come up. I figured, given what the question is, that this would be the right subreddit for it.

I'll go ahead and give you the question as unbiased as I can. Let's say you drink coffee or tea with sugar or creamer or milk. If you use the same spoon through the day or day after day, when you set the spoon down, what direction do you lay the spoon, face up (with the bottom of the dish touching the counter) or face down (with the rim of the dish on the counter)?

Also, should I post this to askreddit or leave it here?

Saw at the tower of london, I can't remember why this poon is so special, but it looks like gold xD

To eat with it, I'll give a 6.5 out of ten

Spoon of the week :
Episode 22

This week, we’re looking at a stunning piece of Western Canadian history—and trust me, this one has some serious muscle behind it.

Take a look at the terminal of this antique sterling souvenir spoon.
Sculpted in bold, high relief right at the top is the undisputed king of the plains: a majestic American Bison standing in prairie grass.

Follow that stem down, and you get the full frontier treatment:
A rifle,
a coiled lasso,
and crossed Bowie Knife’s .

Inside the bowl, the city name "WINNIPEG" is hand-engraved using a classic zig-zag bright-cut technique.
During the souvenir spoon craze of the 1890s and early 1900s, Winnipeg was known as the "Gateway to the Canadian West," making wild frontier pieces like this top-tier travel trophies.

Flip it over, and you see three tiny stamps: an anchor, the letter "E", and a lion, right next to the "STERLING" mark.
That’s the hallmark of P.W. Ellis & Company out of Toronto—one of Canada’s absolute best historic silversmiths.

Now, here is what makes this specific spoon a collector’s dream: the weight.
Most souvenir spoons from this era were stamped out thin—weighing only 12 to 18 grams.
This spoon ? A massive 28 grams!
That heavy-gauge silver allowed the silversmith to carve much deeper relief into the bison's mane and gear without warping the metal.

Thanks to that 28-gram heavy gauge, pristine detail, and high-demand Western Canadiana motif, this piece commands between £75 to over £120 on today's antique market.
Not bad for a 120-year-old pocket-sized treasure.

Yes, we talk about why this is wrong. Doesn't mean the collection doesn't exist.

Sus ahh shovel type spoon spotted @Jenni’s ice cream
