Spoon with Fish-Tail Design

Cleveland Museum of Art

Spoon with Fish-Tail Design by Unknown. The object is a long-handled spoon made of metal, likely silver or silver-plated, with a worn and tarnished appearance. The bowl of the spoon is oval-shaped and smooth. The handle is long and thin, with a decorative fish-tail design at the top. The fish-tail design features two prongs that resemble the tail of a fish, with the prongs pointing upwards. The background of the image is a plain gray surface, with a shadow cast by the spoon to the right. The shadow is dark and defined, indicating a light source coming from the left side of the image. The overall appearance of the spoon suggests it may be an antique or vintage item.
