SPOONS FROM BELGIUM



Belgium is a small kingdom nestled between France and Germany in Northern Europe.

Brussels is the home for NATO. Bruges is a very cute medieval style town which has a castle which was the model for Disneyland.

I only have a few spoons to share with you.

This bowl is a copy of a Ruben's painting. It is entirely hand painted. The amount of detail in this small demi bowl is incredible. Unfortunately there is a small chip missing at the top of the bowl. The spoon is from Anvers and the enameled finial has a castle.
