This is an antique sterling silver souvenir spoon from beautiful Lake Winona in northern Indiana.

It is about 4-1/4" long.  It has a goldwashed bowl, which is hand-engraved "Winona Lake, Ind.", and is probably from around 1900 or so.

The handle has a figural rose on it.  This type of spoon was very popular in the 1890's and was known as a love or gift spoon.  They were handmade, or at least made to look like that, and were often engraved with names, dates and/or places.  Fun items!

Maker's marks:  "Sterling" only, on the back of the handle.

Weight:  8.5 grams.

Engraving: As described above.

Condition: Very good, no problems.
