The handle is equally embellished with a rich array of colours with a'twisted' neck section connecting the two. The rest of the spoon is fully gilt with a beautiful gold tone. The spoon is hallmarked on the side of the twisted stem with the maker's mark'BA' and the combined standard and city mark signifying the Moscow region as well as the 84 zolotnik silver standard.
