Handstamped Vintage Jam Spoon, Help I'm In A Jam

About this item

Made in
Wimborne, Dorset
Description

A handstamped vintage silver plated jam or preserve spoon with the plaintive message 'HELP, I'M IN A JAM!' in block lettering in the bowl. It's a shallow pointed spoon measuring approximately 12.5cm long and has little scalloped cut-outs at the base of the bowl (to allow syrup from preserves to drain away). The handle is ornately decorated with embossed scrollwork and flowers. This would make a fun little gift especially if you presented it along with a jar of jam! This listing is for ONE spoon. You will receive the spoon shown in the photographs. The lettering is coloured with a non-toxic, water-based acrylic ink. Wash carefully by hand as the colour is not indestructible - the lettering, however, is stamped into the metal and should last pretty much as long as the spoon does. Please note this is a vintage spoon that has been used, loved and polished, so it does have a few hairline scratches and wear marks. Also I mis-hit the 'H' right at the beginning so this is in the bargain bin for a fiver - I hope someone will love it despite its imperfection!
