This rare vintage spoon set originates from Burma (now Myanmar) and consists of six ornately crafted teaspoons made of genuine silver (probably 800 grade or higher). Each spoon is decorated with a traditional chinthe figure —a mythological lion creature considered a protective symbol in Burmese culture and often seen at the entrances to temples and pagodas.
The reverses all bear the BURMA imprint , some as a deep stamp, others lightly engraved – a clear sign of handcrafted production and export goods from the colonial period or the early independence phase (approx. 1940s–1960s).
The set weighs a total of 36.63 grams , with the individual spoons weighing between 5.3 and 6.95 grams . With a length of approximately 9 cm , they are perfect as teaspoons, dessert spoons, or for collectors. A rare and authentic piece of Burmese craftsmanship – ideal for lovers of Asian silverwork or as a unique decorative piece with a rich history.
