found this item in a box of stuff at an auction. there was a bunch of high dollar political memorabilia so it led me to believe that the previous owner must have valued this item.
it is a silver spoon. not sure if plated or solid. very small maybe 2 inches in length. I have been told that it is a salt or condiment spoon.
the writing on it is asian in nature, not sure if chinese or japanese. there is an inscription on the back at near the top of the handle and some characters and a square in the ladle itself.
I am not sure what I have here or how old it is. I cannot find any like it on the interwebs.
any help would be appreciated
