Spoon - Bronze - 17th-century apostle spoon

A fine example of a 17th-century Latin spoon with the image of the Virgin Mary and child. The spoon has a broad, flattened shank that narrows toward the top and a typical five-sided bowl. The crowned image of the Virgin Mary with child is clearly cast. The spoon is in very good condition but has a small chip from the bowl!! See photos!!! has a natural color.
