Pendulum Spoon Pendant – Adie Brothers Ltd, Birmingham 1927

$60.00

Created from a single sterling silver coffee spoon by Adie Brothers Ltd (Birmingham, 1927), this pendant transforms the utensil’s form into a sculptural pendulum. The bowl now hangs freely from a hand-forged bail, its gentle curve and split ridge giving it the presence of a small suspended sculpture.

The hallmarks — lion passant, Birmingham anchor, date letter “C”, and A♦B LTD — are all retained on the surface, a quiet signature of provenance and craftsmanship.
