Approximate dimensions: Length: 90mm (3.5")

Condition Good, with light marks indicative of age and usage.

Crafted from brass, this teaspoon features a handle designed in the likeness of an imp or sprite figure, similar to The Lincoln Imp. Such souvenir teaspoons were popular during the Victorian era, purchased by travellers to commemorate visits. The imp motif reflects Victorian fascination with mythical creatures.

Despite its age, the teaspoon remains in good condition, showing light marks from use. The absence of maker's branding suggests it may be from a smaller workshop. This piece serves as a reminder of Victorian craftsmanship and the allure of collecting mementos from the past.
