Louis XIV Combined Retractable Silver Spoon with Two Tine Fork, 1592
Located in Vero Beach, FL
Louis XIV combined retractable silver spoon with two tine fork, 1592.
Very rare French Louis XIV combined retractable silver spoon with two tine fork 1592, traveling utensil. We are proud to offer this exceptional and unusual museum piece to the market. This rare traveling utensil set consists of a combined spoon and retractable fork from the 16th century. It was introduced by Catherine de Medici who brought them from Italy to France in 1553, upon her marriage to the future king, Henry II. Up to this time forks had only two tine.

Once sacrilegious and controversial, fork and spoon are among the most important inventions in the history of Western culture. In 1633 King Charles I of England declared them, “decent to use” and so the fork, slowly but surely, gained acceptance at the table.
This beautiful solid silver piece has a figural finial and a small seal similar to the Apostle spoons...
