Stunning Antique Heart Shaped Silver French Haitian Long Handle Teaspoon Set-6

Description

This is a beautiful set of 6 hand crafted long handled teaspoons made of coin silver from French Haiti.  Some of the coins vary in dates-1894 is the earliest date that I can locate.  There are two scenes represented with one being the head and the other being the reverse side of island scene of Palm tree and cannons.  Silver content appears to be marked as 835. "Liberte, Egalite, and Fraternite" marked on the coins as well as the " Republique d'Haitian".  The entire set is listed as created in 1897.  The spoons are approx.  8.5" in length.  Long handled teaspoons or for condiments.  Very interesting set and beautifully mastered with intricate heart shaped handles. They were made at a time when Haitian silver was at its height throughout the world.   .00 shipping.   The heart handle ends are incredibly well crafted!  I have seen similar (but not equal) go for 2-3x this asking price.  They make a lovely presentation and gift!  NOTE: eBay has listed shipping much higher than I request.  I will refund amount to .00 as listed in this narrative.
