These are a great pair of Antique Welsh Oak Lovespoon and Fork, beautifully carved throughout from one piece of wood. On the handle of both the spoon and the fork are carved hearts and diamonds and a flower, along with the names of some flowers "Grass Tiger flower and Mouse Ear Scorpion". The Mouse Ear Scorpion is a Forget Me Not, appropriate for a lovespoon. The heart represents love, the diamond wealth and good fortune and the flower affection.
Both the fork and spoon have very good colour and patina.
