This beautiful gold enamelled spoon is from early 19th-century Iran.
The art of enamelling was especially popular during the Qajar period, which this spoon dates from.
Water pipe bases, swords and daggers, mirrors, and tableware are some of the types of objects which were painted with enamels. Several signed and dated pieces survive, many of which date to the times of Fath ‘Ali Shah, the Qajar ruler of Iran from 1797 to 1834.
