Hello there,
Based on the size of the spoon it is one of several objects. From the looks of it the piece is probably about 5 1/2 inches long. If so, it is a nut spoon or petit-fours server (or bon bon server). If it is larger it belongs to another category all together. It would be considered a pastry server (doughnuts, muffins etc) or a tomato server (slices). As a pastry server I have seen interesting patterns created on the tops of muffins by turning the spoon on top of the muffin and sprinkling powdered sugar over the top.
This site is an excellent site to find makers marks, and this one is definitely an American mark (the link from the other viewer will take you to the listings) but the maker is Webster Co. (North Attleboro Mass.)
Hope you find this helpful.
