I can't read any of the marks, what do they say?
I see these called iced tea spoons but the long part is usually a straw.

Hello

The following isn't a solution - but an interestful similarity:

re: unidentified leaf spoons

Thanks for your replies.. These came from my Great grandfather and I believe he brought back with him from the Amazon in late 1800's. They each have a similiar spider type mark but the writing is placed under the "veins" of the leaf

Thanks,

Audrey
