Thank you for visiting Looney Spoons! I've got spoons for all occasions and budgets, and since I hand stamp each and every letter myself - if you don't see exactly what you want, just ask me to stamp it for you. Personalisation makes a gift extra-special.
My prices haven't increased since 2021 and will remain fixed until the end of the year. I haven't increased my postage in line with the latest price hike either; it will remain fixed until the end of the year too. I always combine the postage no matter how many spoons you purchase... AND there are lots of bargains in the Bargain Bin already, with plenty more to come. I would like everyone in the UK to find a spoon in their stocking on Christmas morning!
Please note I'll be shutting the shop for my Christmas break on FRIDAY 13 DECEMBER - well before Royal Mail's last posting dates - so don't leave it too late to order your festive spoons. I'll be reopening on Monday 6 January.

Full description

An antique pastry or sweetmeat server with an ornate handle and a flat wide head, which I've hand stamped round the edge with the Shakespeare quote 'THINGS SWEET TO TASTE PROVE IN DIGESTION SOUR.' Which gets better the more you think about it...

This would make a nice little gift for a literary and/or foodie friend - or for someone who is a bit cynical and old - maybe give it together with a selection of sticky sweets or tiny pastries? Baklava perhaps?

I will send the spoon shown in the photos. This is a vintage (or probably antique) spoon so it does show signs of age and wear and has lost practically all of its original silver plating so it's never going to come up shiny no matter how much you polish. Trust me. The black in the letters is water-based acrylic ink (not dirt or tarnish or Sharpie marker). Hand wash with care.

Size matters? Length approx. 15.5cm.

Designed by Lynn Davy in Dorset
