    Peculiar little spoon with what seems to read "CAURUS" on it, as well as a slightly graphic intimacy scene. Interesting & indistinguishable image on the scoop region... any Info would be greatly appreciated!

    Looks kind of like a snuff spoon, you say "little", but how big is it - what are the dimensions?

    I think it is taurus with a small "t" - looks like a 1970s coke spoon to me.

    About two inches long? Looks almost like pewter but I'm no metals expert so who knows. Shame it's not something a bit more exotic... and likely a fairly inexpensive novelty item at best haha

    Back in the bad old 1980s,I had a Tiffany salt spoon in the shape of a sunflower that I wore on a silver chain. It was the perfect size! ;)

    Yep, it is an 70's to 80's coke spoon IMHO. Of course that was the snuff of the time was
    Love it! Mine had a ball and claw at the end but it wasn't Tiffany. (purely for aesthetics of course!)
