About this Product
"She believed she could so she did" vintage, silver plated spoon bookmark.
Each bookmark has it's own former life including tarnish, dings, dents, and scratches. All bookmarks in this listing will be in the same likeness of that shown in the listing picture, but the placement of lettering my vary slightly.
All of our items are ~hand stamped.~ We use a hammer and a metal punch to make an impression in the metal. Letters are hand aligned, so placement of letters may vary from piece to piece.All bookmarks are thoughtfully made with vintage, silver plated spoons. Some are more than 100 years old. Bookmarks may be slightly bumpy and the letter placement may vary from piece to piece depending on the flat and bumpy areas of the spoon. Some letters may be darker than others, and some parts of the spoons may contain more patina and wear than other parts of the spoon. This is the personality of the bookmark that makes each one unique. The spoon bookmark will never be perfectly flat or in like-new condition.

Silver Lining Stamping
Meet the Maker
In 2015, I exchanged the crazy hustle and bustle life near a big city for coastal island life. It's the best decision I've ever made with my husband, 13 year old daughter, and 10 year old son. Salty sea-life is the perfect place to be. I hope you love my personalized, hand stamped items. Enjoy!

How it’s Made
I source all of my vintage, silver plated spoons. Each spoon is cleaned, flattened on an anvil, hand stamped (one letter at a time), the letters are darkened, bent, adjusted, and polished.
This item is not able to be personalized.
