Many of the spoons shown in these pictures are also described in more detail in other exhibits of this museum.
However, I thought it would be interesting to group them into pictures so that you can see them in relation to each other.
Weddings and related celebrations tend to have a lot of people and of course that means a lot of food. Attention is often paid to the smallest of details and the choice of utensils for serving the food would have received a lot of attention.
As you can see from the ruler - -these are very large pieces

These spoons are a little smaller, but they all have elements in them which would suggest that they were for a wedding celebration.
This often includes a man and woman figures, hearts, cornucopia symbols etc.
An argument could be made about the Adam and Eve spoon pictured as that spoon could be involved in a number of different types of celebrations.
