Seller's Description
Puerto Vallarta Mexico Souvenir Tea Spoon Incan Design Jade or Jasper Tiki 4-1/4"
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 "P Vallarta" in raised letters. The bowl of the spoon has an Incan or Mayan looking design on it. The back of the spoon is marked Alpaca Mexico.
The spoon measures approx. 4-1/4 inches (11 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 1/4" (3.4 X 1 X 0.7 cm). The spoon weighs about 10 gr.
The spoon is in good condition with a few light scratches. (See pictures).
From the Wikipedia:
Puerto Vallarta:
Puerto Vallarta's proximity to the Bay of Banderas, the agricultural valley of the Ameca River, and the important mining centers in the Sierra have given the town a more interesting past than most Mexican tourist destinations. Puerto Vallarta was a thriving Mexican village long before it became an international tourist destination. Tourism was a major economic activity because of the climate, scenery, tropical beaches, and rich cultural history. For a sense of the extent even of the city's modern history, note that Puerto Vallarta and Seattle were founded in the same year, 1851.
The spoon is stored in a baggie and will be shipped in the baggie, in a padded envelope.
