For sale is this lovely Meiji period Japanese silver and enamel coffee sized spoon. The spoon bowl decorated with enamel leaves flowers (anemones I think) and the stem with two applied and enamelled butterflies.
The spoon is marked but I have not been able to identify the maker – see images. It carries all the characteristics of the renowned Japanese maker Sanju Saku and the maker may be a retailers mark. The spoon is in excellent original condition.
Sanju Saku was one of Japan’s leading silversmiths, based in Yokahama, making and retailing silver with enamels to this style circa 1880-1920.
