Old spoons bent together

[jaybird10e]

Found this in the woods...(near an old school and jail) in an area where i have been finding stuff from the late 1800's. Obviously they are two spoons bent together...but why? Was it for a reason? Probably just some kid just goofing around with the spoons mom packed in his lunch? Who knows? I dont. Thanks for looking.

Souvenir from a Uri Geller performance?



Do they come apart easily? Maybe napkin rings...

Didn't pay much attention to Uri Geller, back when... Did he bend stainless as well as sterling?

It is to frustrate fat kids during pudding time.

Might have been a string alarm. they hang the spoons on a string and it clatters if the string is disturbed.

If you unhook them, do they sit flat on the handle with the bowl
part facing up?

Shame on DCMatt, Oddjob and A2coins! But, I must admit - your "guesses" were funny.

I tried all sorts of searches because this is too symmetrical to not be known.

Just one thing, though, these look more like ladels and not spoons. Just smaller ladels for sauce.

Anyway, I would keep them, you never know, someone may pop up one day with a set and know what they are.
