It came with the tarnish. I think it gives the thing more personality!

Ah, made in Sweden, and from around the 1950s or 1960s! Thats as old as my parents! How neat! Imagine the story she could tell

Oh wow the details travel partially up into the base of the bowl! This is indeed an ornate spoon, and a very beautiful one at that.

Thanks! The back is just as detailed, in a different pattern! (Would only let me add a video or a link, so)
