Vintage Bon Bon Spoon Conversion Necklace - Poppy

Of all the flatware that has been made, I find the most intriguing piece is the bon bon spoon (or nut spoon).  These gorgeous, intricate utensils were literally made to hold a single bon bon for dessert.  They tend to be the fanciest of the entire set of silverware. Because I can't resist something this beautiful, I had to make it into something wearable.  This particular spoon is sterling silver and was made by Payne and Baker and the pattern is 'Poppy'.  A giant poppy flower was the bowl of the spoon and is now the pendant centerpiece.  It has been crafted in repousse-which is where the pattern you see is created by hammering or pressing from the reverse side of the piece.
