Bought this spoon in a scrap sterling lot. What am I looking at here? I'm not seeing anything like it. Is is enamel? Chinese? Period? Maker? Value?

Thanks!!!

I'm no Asian character expert, but I always enjoyed a good spoon.

I believe that to be an art nouveau style cloisonné sterling and enamel spoon. It could be a modern China import done in an automated low cost process.

Plique-à-jour is the term I would use to describe this spoon. No help on the mark though. Nice spoon for sure.

Nice score. Can't beat that at scrap prices.
