-SOLD- Rare Brass Welsh Love Spoon with Keyhole Motif & Twin Hearts, Symbol of Unity & Devotion

A striking and unusual interpretation of the traditional Welsh love spoon, this beautifully cast brass example offers a distinctive and romantic presence, rich in symbolism and heritage charm.

The design features twin pierced hearts, representing enduring love and unity, elegantly positioned above a stylised openwork stem. At its centre, a finely detailed Prince of Wales feathers motif adds a strong sense of Welsh identity and cultural significance. Most intriguingly, the spoon culminates in a decorative keyhole form, traditionally symbolic of trust, security, and the offering of one’s heart.

Unlike the more commonly seen carved wooden examples, this piece is crafted in solid brass, giving it a warm golden tone and a pleasing weight, enhancing its decorative appeal. The openwork detailing and sculptural form create a piece that is both visually captivating and meaningful.

Perfect as:

A romantic gift with symbolic meaning

A distinctive addition to a curated interior

A conversation piece for collectors of Welsh or folk-inspired artefacts

A rare and characterful piece that beautifully reimagines a timeless tradition.
