Seller's Description
Mexico Souvenir Teaspoon Tea Spoon Aztec Idol 4-3/16" long
The rear of this spoon bowl has heavy tarnish on it.
I acquired this spoon from an estate sale.
The spoon is topped with an Aztec Idol. The stem of the spoon says "Mexico" in raised letters. The bowl of the spoon has an Aztec calendar on it. The back of the spoon is marked Alpaca Mexico.
The spoon measures 4-3/16 inches (10.6 cm) long X 1-1/4 inch (3.2 cm) wide (At the widest part of the spoon bowl) and weighs 10 gr.
The spoon is in fair condition with a few light scratches. It also has heavy tarnish on the rear of the spoon bowl and a small spot of corrosion on the front edge of the spoon bowl. (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.
