Vintage Spoon Necklace, Spoon Pendant, Elegance 1954, Silverware Jewelry
$22.00
This wonderfully ornate spoon necklace was crafted from a vintage silverplated teaspoon in the not-too-easy-to-find "Elegance" pattern from 1954, making this spoon about 60 years old. The detail in this pattern is incredible, yet it's not at all heavy. You can wear it as long as you like. It measures just 1 1/2" too, so I would classify it as a small/medium spoon pendant.
This spoon pendant has been cut, formed, cleaned, and treated with a special anti-tarnish cream to keep it shining longer. If it ever starts looking a little dull, just a quick rub with a polishing cloth or soft fabric will make it glow again.
This spoon pendant is shown on a standard 18" sterling silver plated chain with a lobster clasp. If you'd like a different length, you're welcome to trade it for a 16", 20", or 24" chain instead. You can choose at checkout.
Your elegant little piece of silverware jewelry will arrive festively packaged, and will include the age & pattern of the spoon; along with a Spoonfest Jewelry story card.
Thanks so much for looking!

As a side note... the 'bowl' was transformed into one of the spoon pendants in the 'Optical Infusions' Section, giving new meaning to the word recycle. All parts are transformed from something forgotten, and given a new, different style and function.

What can I expect from vintage silverware jewelry?
Although I choose and refurbish spoons very carefully, they do show small signs of 'vintage character'. Taking into consideration their age and previous history; it's pretty amazing that they shine up as beautifully as they do. I do not use any spoons that have plate loss or extreme signs of use, but please expect a few slight signs from their previous life.
Custom and personalized orders
I accept custom orders on a limited basis. If you'd like me to create jewelry from your silverware, please contact me via Etsy 'convo' and let me know what you have in mind.
If you don't know the name of your pattern, please include a quick picture of one of the handles. I'm very careful and cautious when working with your family heirlooms and there are a few patterns that are harder to work with, or could be problematic.
I prefer to work with either sterling silver or silverplate. Stainless steel pieces are often too thick, and therefore too hard to bend.
No custom orders can be accepted after September 1st.
Lifetime Warranty
Yes, Lifetime. I know, right? Since I’m not part of a group, it would have to be my life, not yours - but I don't plan on going anywhere soon.
I want you to be thrilled with your purchase and know that if there is anything you’re not happy with; we will work together for the best solution. If your item is not right upon arrival, or malfunctions in anyway within one year, I will adjust or repair it free of charge. Please contact me via Etsy ‘convo’ before sending your item back.
After the first year, if it needs repair, or even just a “tune-up”, contact me and I’ll be happy to do that for you for a $6.00 shipping & handling fee. The parts and labor are on me.
I truly want you to enjoy your piece for a lifetime.

I wish I could keep this necklace because I LOVE it but it's really for my sister-in-law's 60th birthday. I know she'll love it, too. Ordered on Sat. and it came on Mon. I will certainly purchase again from this shop.
