Seller's Description
Mexico Souvenir Tea Spoon Aztek Design Jade or Jasper Tiki 4-1/16"
Note: I am not sure that the stone on the spoon is Jade or Jasper. It could well be something else.
I acquired this spoon from an estate sale.
The spoon is topped with what looks to be a piece of Jade carved to look like a Tiki. The stem of the spoon the words "Mexico" in raised letters. The bowl of the spoon has an Aztec calander on it. The back of the spoon is marked Alpaca Mexico.
The spoon measures approx. 4-1/16 inches (1.4 cm) long X 15/16 inch (2.3 cm) wide (At the widest part of the spoon bowl). The Tiki measures approx. 1-1/4" X 3/8" X 5/16" (3.4 X 1 X 0.8 cm). The spoon weighs about 10 gr.
The spoon is in good condition with a few light scratches. (See pictures).
From the Wikipedia:
Aztec:
The Aztec people were certain ethnic groups of central Mexico, particularly those groups who spoke the Nahuatl language and who dominated large parts of Mesoamerica from the 14th to 16th centuries. The Nahuatl words aztecatl (singular) and aztecah (plural) mean "people from Aztlan", a mythological place for the Nahuatl-speaking culture of the time, and later adopted as the word to define the Mexica people. Often the term "Aztec" refers exclusively to the Mexica people of Tenochtitlan (now the location of Mexico City), situated on an island in Lake Texcoco, who referred to themselves as Mexica Tenochca or Cōlhuah Mexica.
