This is a 2-7/8" long and 1-1/2" across the bowl silver plated tea caddy spoon of the RMS Franconia III. Launched as the RMS Ivernia II and renamed the RMS Franconia in 1963, The Ivernia II was one of four sister ships in the Saxonia class passenger liners of Cunard in 1955. It was refitted and renamed the Franconia III in 1962-3, and was active from 1963-71. In 1971, she was docked and sold soon after to the Black Sea Shipping Co (Russia) and re-named the Fedor Shalyapin. It was scrapped in 2004. This item is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, dents, monograms, corrosion, repairs or damage other than the loss of about half of the silver plating.
