Infant Feeding Spoon

At first sight the Infant Feeding Spoon may look like the Iced Tea Spoon, but at a little over 5 inches long it is 2 inches shorter than the Iced Tea Spoon. It has a long thin stem with a smaller bowl to fit in smaller mouths. This piece is found in most patterns.

King Richard by Towle

Towle introduced King Richard in 1932. It was designed by Ferdinand Poppenhauser. It is a pretty pattern with a heavy design, but not one that stands out among the hundreds of truly unique patterns of its day.
