Paul Revere Jr.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Two silver spoons, one above the other, on a flat surface. The top spoon has a long handle with a slight curve and a small engraving near the handle end; it has a rounded bowl. The bottom spoon has a similar shape with a slightly wider bowl and an engraving on the end of the handle; both spoons have a reflective surface. A small white rectangular piece of paper with handwritten text is at the bottom. The background is a plain flat surface, light gray in color. The spoons are by Paul Revere Jr.
