Know before you buy
This Acorn teaspoon measures 5.08 inches in height, which is a standard size for a traditional tea or coffee spoon.
Yes, the spoon is crafted from high-quality sterling silver, consistent with the Georg Jensen heritage of using precious metals for their cutlery collections.
The Acorn pattern, designed by Johan Rohde in 1915, is defined by its organic, understated aesthetic where the decorative elements are specifically placed to accentuate the spoon's structural form rather than overwhelm it.
As with all sterling silver cutlery, it should be hand-washed with a gentle detergent and dried immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and maintain its luster. Regular, gentle polishing with a silver-safe cloth will help preserve the intricate details of the design.
The Acorn pattern’s timeless and minimalist aesthetic allows it to blend surprisingly well with contemporary table settings. Its organic shape acts as a sophisticated accent piece that complements both traditional and modern flatware.
