A twisted twig handle is strapped with sea-grass wire  and drapes a mollusk at the top. An attached bowl is formed as a fish. This nautical spoon displays imaginative design and whimsy.

This uncommon spoon is marked with Gorham's trademark and 'STERLING/ 10.' It measures 5 inches long, weighs .50 troy ounces and is in excellent antique condition.
