Spoon Lore:
The romantic Mermaid pattern designed by the Watson Co between 1880-1920
Mermaid patterns are incredibly hard to find. The Watson Mermaid is harder to find even still. This is the first time this sweet pattern has been offered in the Lady Forge collection as a bangle.
This sweet maiden, half out of the water, might pass a just a beautiful female firm, were it not for the few scales showing trailing along the side of her hip. Revealing that she is indeed a mermaid, or possibly even a siren. Her soft gaze on you as she combs her long hair with a sea shell, water rippling around her form among the water lilies.
The bangle is paired with a wider sterling silver bangle band, which gives the piece a substantial feel, meant to stand the test of time
**Please let me know your wrist size in inches in the order notes - please do not add additional length to this measurement*
How it feels on your hand:
Each Lady Forge Spoon Bangle is hand formed using the portion of the spoon handle with the most design, and is paired with a hand-fabricated sterling silver band that forms the underside of the bracelet which opens and closes on one side. Therefore, the bracelet doesn’t feel too heavy or bulky, and should not rotate on the hand if correct wrist measurements are given (let me know in the order notes)
The bangle be opened and closed from one side, and each bangle is made to fit your wrist!

Oh, If Spoons Could Talk
I love spoon jewelry. And I love hunting for the most beautiful spoons to make it! Spoon jewelry is a little wearable piece of history allowing the story and beauty of the pattern to be displayed and treasured, rather than being forgotten in a drawer or melted down as many of these antique beauties are.
All the pieces I make are from the original antique spoons - none are copies or casts - and I make each by hand, giving care and though to how each pattern is best shaped and displayed.
Using the original sterling silverware means each piece is not only beautiful in design, but full of indications that it has lived life. Maybe a faded monogram or little wear spots - I enjoy thinking about the places they have been and who might have held them 100 years ago. Each piece is, therefore, truly unique.
I have discovered more than one of some of these spoon patterns, so each piece will come with its own character and story, varying slightly on little wear spots and marks from the photo in the listing - There will not be two that are exactly the same, each piece is truly unique.
I hope the piece you choose resonates with your own story and will be a piece you treasure for generations.
