International Silver Prelude Soup Spoon

While sterling silver is durable, we strongly recommend hand washing this spoon to preserve its high-gloss finish and prevent the delicate floral details from wearing down over time. Always dry it immediately with a soft cloth to avoid water spots.

This soup spoon is slightly larger and deeper than a standard teaspoon, designed specifically for comfortable sipping. At 6.88 inches long, it is proportioned for formal soup courses rather than everyday stirring.

The Prelude pattern is a distinct, iconic design featuring specific floral garland motifs. While it pairs beautifully with other traditional silver styles, it is a unique pattern that may not seamlessly integrate with modern or minimalist sets.

Yes, sterling silver will naturally tarnish when exposed to air. To keep it looking its best, store the spoon in a tarnish-resistant cloth or chest and polish it periodically with a high-quality silver cream or cloth.

The handle features a slender profile that is balanced for formal dining. While it is elegant and lightweight, those who prefer a heavier, thicker grip may find it feels quite different from contemporary, chunky flatware.
