Vintage BIG OLD SOUP Spoon Wood Handle 1900s

Vintage wood handle (painted) soup spoon, approximately 11 inches long, the bowl of the spoon is about 3" wide. As you can see it is in need of some TLC from you. The white spot on the spoon bowl is from the tag at product. We are leaving it to you to place some care into polishing and refinishing this spoon. It is our understanding that this spoon is dated from the mid-1900s. This is what we were told by the producteer, we cannot swear by it, but it is old and it is neat. We do not know the composition of the actual metal of the spoon. It could be silverplate, but again we do not know for sure. It's a great gift for someone who collects antique flatware and individual kitchen pieces.
