This spoon is 12 inches long & and has a nice balance feel to it when in use. I USED IT FROM DAY ONE AS A MARTINI SPOON TO MIX DRINKS WITH. WHEN I LATER LOOKED IN A SILVERWARE BOOK AND FOUND OUT IT WAS " REALLY MADE AS A CLARET SPOON. SO WHAT IS A CLARET SPOON ? WELL, A CLARET SPOON WAS MADE FROM 1880 TO APPX: 1910 IT WAS USED BY WINE DRINKERS WHO SERVED THERE WINE IN LARGE PITCHERS AND MANY PUT FRESH FRUIT IN IT , FOR FLAVOR. ( I KNOW AS A ITALIAN WE PUT APPLES , ORANGES , AND SOME TIME PEARS IN THE PITCHER ) NOW ANY ONE THAT DOES THIS AND DRINKS THE WINE " KNOWN'S " THE FRUIT IS THE BEST PART OF DOING THIS. SO WITH THIS SPOON WE COULD TAKE THE FRUIT OUT OF THE PITCHER TO THEN SERVE IT ALL THERE. WE PUT IT ON SMALL PLATES AND SHARE IT WITH ALL THAT WANT SOME ( WHICH IN MY HOUSE WAS EVERYONE DRINKING OR NOT DRINKING..... hahahahahahahaha ! ......) JUST A NOTE HERE: YOU DIDN'T HV TO YOU CLARET WINE ONLY, WE USED WHAT WE HAD MADE BY MY GRANDFATHER IN THE BASEMENT...( WOW, WAS IT GOOD...AND ALSO VERY STRONG...hahahahahahaha !!! ) OR IF WE HAD NONE IN STOCK WE COULD GO TO THE LOCAL STORE BACK IN BROOKLYN ON 13TH AVE. AND PURCHASE SOME THERE...... LOT # 3 4 8 *****
