Hello and Merry Christmas,

some weeks I tried to find the origin of this spoon, but without success.
There are some indications, that makes me believe, that the origin is probably in Northern Germany. For instance the pointed name "Grandt" was and still ist there very often (but from about 1800 I found also examples from Denmark and Switzerland).

I would be glad, if someone has an idea.

Best regards, Ringo

I assume that you have found him born 1821 - his son was born 1821
