Inspired by the 'New teaspoon advice please' thread, I wonder if one of you can identify this spoon?

We've got a cutlery set but only 4 teaspoons which drives me nuts. However, I've no idea what the set is called so I could try to find new ones.

It is a long shot, but as Terry Pratchett said "Million-to-one chances...crop up nine times out of ten."

Looks like some variation of the "Bamboo" pattern.

Post that pic in the other thread and someone will probably make you an offer on the remaining ones.

They look in far better condition than any of the old tat already posted.

Your missing teaspoons are safe.
They are being held at a safe location.

(No custard, so hope Greek style yoghurt will suffice).
Do not contact the police.

Colin? Is that you? Your mother is worried sick. Get back to the cutlery drawer immediately.

And take that little one with you. He should have been in bed hours ago.

I believe they’re copies (sorry) of a an early Krupp-Warbler 64c (and the smaller one is a 64c/b) before Krupp really made it ‘big’

I think you’re lucky to have them as finding even the copies are rare due to the 1974 Iranian Spoon purge where so many good spoons were melted down to make toast racks frown

You had better take this seriously, if you don’t the spoons will get it. If even one goes you will never get back your set of twelve!

Muahaha

It looks like a similar set to my own, a delightful set purchased from a local artisan boutique, Asda of Tipton from their in-house genius designer George. Happy to help

The design is called Wallflower by VanGough. Don McLean wrote a song about them, Stirry Stirry Night.

They're both left handed, if that helps.
