Tea Spoon by Patrick Martin. Two metal spoons are shown. The spoons have oval-shaped bowls. The handles are long and have engravings on them. The engravings appear to be lines and a leaf-like design. The spoons are placed on a flat surface, one on top of the other. The surface appears to be a light-colored material, possibly paper or fabric. The image is in black and white. The spoons are oriented with the bowls facing left. The handles have a decorative element at the end. The decorative element is a leaf-like design. The leaf-like design is on the right end of the handles. The handles have a small horizontal line in the middle.
