Auction 389 | AFRICA, OCEANIA & AMERICA - GIOIELLI DAL MONDO Online
Lot 38
Arte Africana
Africa. Bracelet made from teaspoon. Punched and tested silver.
It is interesting to observe how in an unspecified part of Africa, at some point in history, a silver teaspoon changed its use and became a wrist ornament with just a few hammer blows. To the peace of mind of the former owner A.D. and her good silver service.
The spoon/bracelet is punched and also tested with a zigzag assay just below the figures of the original owner.
Evident signs of use and patina.
