Know before you buy
The 800 silver mark indicates that the piece is composed of 80% pure silver and 20% other metals, typically copper. This alloy is common in European silverwork and is slightly harder and more durable than sterling silver, which is 92.5% pure.
Yes, this is a functional demitasse spoon designed for espresso service. However, because it features delicate enamel work, we recommend hand-washing it gently to preserve the painted finish.
To protect the enamel, avoid using harsh silver polishes or abrasive scrubbers. Simply wash the spoon in mild, soapy water, rinse it thoroughly, and dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.
The intricate painted enamel design is featured specifically on the back of the spoon bowl. The front of the bowl remains in polished silver, while the handle features blue enamel accents.
No, this spoon should not be placed in a dishwasher. The high heat, intense water pressure, and harsh detergents can damage the enamel finish and cause the silver to tarnish prematurely.
