Know before you buy
The Match Pewter Antique Ladle measures 13.5 inches in length, providing a comfortable reach for most standard soup tureens and serving bowls.
While its intricate design makes it a beautiful display piece, it is crafted for functional, everyday use. The durable pewter construction is designed to withstand regular service of soups, stews, and sauces.
To maintain its finish, hand wash the ladle with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid using the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the pewter surface.
Pewter is generally safe for serving, but it is best to avoid leaving the ladle submerged in highly acidic foods for extended periods. For standard serving purposes, it will perform perfectly without affecting the flavor or quality of your dish.
Each ladle is meticulously handcrafted by artisans in Northern Italy, adhering to centuries-old traditions of metalwork.
