17th century Norwegian knop top spoon?
Posted: Fri Sep 07, 2018 2:35 pm
Hi, just got this lovely spoon which I believe is 17th century and from Norway but I am not an expert. I believe this style of spoon was made from the 17th century through the 18th century. It has remnants of gilding on the stem, on the top of the bowl and the knop. Also the knop rattles. The spoon measures about 146 mm / 5.75" long x 60mm / 2.25" wide bowl. There is only one mark but its a bit worn. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
