It's made that way.

They make ones like that for people who have trouble bending wrist. Size would probaly tell you if it is a baby spoon or for adult.

That is a very interesting device

I doubt if it is intended for babies - not with those sharp bits

Actually, you might be surprised.

Stabbing baby in the mouth with a fork isn't the least of it. Here's some Soothing Syrup little Timmy. Drink Up.

Inkster...

The Victorians had formal tableware for every single imaginable
kind of thing and it may have had a special purpose, a few more
pics and some type size scale might help.

Depending on size it may well be the fork half of a salad serving set.

Or - we might have to depend on Lear's Runcible Spoon explanation... a fine specimen indeed.
