Iron fork and spoon
« on: May 13, 2016, 09:22:12 pm »
I am wondering if someone can give me some sort of info on this large iron fork and spoon. They are about 9-10" long or so, says Taiwan on the back, they are made of iron with the black paint on them worn off quite a bit.. I'm fairly new to this antique collecting obsession I'm having so I really have no idea.. But I'm wondering mostly if anyone can tell me at least what decade they come from? Thank you in advance!

Back during the 1960`s and 70`s these were popular kitchen decorations !!  Most came as a  set of 4 with an iron hanger to attach to the wall !!  The utensils hung from hooks on the wall bracket !!  There were many types of spoon and fork wall decorations back then !! My mother had a spoon and fork set that were wooden and about 2 ft long !!  Was a decorating trend I guess !!
