Spoon 1800 - 1830

This silver spoon, created between 1800 and 1830 by E. Whitehouse, is a testament to the craftsmanship of the early 19th century. The spoon's simple yet elegant design features a rounded bowl and a slender handle adorned with delicate beading. The handle terminates in a decorative motif featuring a diamond shape, signifying a touch of sophistication. Now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the spoon serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of functional art and its ability to transcend time.
