DESIGN FOR A SPOON.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 22,661, dated August 1, 1893.

Application filed May 12,1893. Serial No. 474,028. Term of patent 14 years.

To LZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES E. PRTAT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Waterbury, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented and produced a new and original Design for Handles of Spoons, dac.; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make. and use the same.

In the accompanying drawings Figures l and 2 are front and rear elevations respectively illustrating my complete design as applied to the handle of a spoon.

The leading features of my new and original design are, first, as to the obverse side of the handle, the parallel th reads which diverge at the bottom in foliate patterns, where the handle joins on to the spoon or similar article, and follow upward along the border of the handle in regular curves and terminate at a point about midway of such handle in converging scrolls; the succession of generally converging scrolls along the borders of the u pper part of the handle; and the scalloped shelllike ornament surmounting said converging scrolls at the head of the handle and contained wholly within the continuous unbroken curved outline at the end of the handle, and, as to the reverse side of the handle, the parallel threads along the borders of the handle which diverge at the bottom in regular scrolllike patterns, at the point where the handle joins on to the spoon or similar article, said threads, on one border of the handle and about midway of the length of the latter, terminating in inward scrolls, and on the opposite border, opposed to the latter scrolls leading into a combined scroll and foliate ornamentation, threads continuing along the borders of the upper part of the handle, and broken by combined inwardly extending scroll and foliate ornamentations, and surmounting the latter at the head of the handle, a drooping foliate ornamentation contained wholly within the continuous unbroken curved outline of the end of the handle.

In the drawings, referring to the obverse side, 1 are the parallel threads along the borders of the handle, 2 the diverging foliate patterns at the bottom thereof, 3 the converging scrolls midway of the handle, 4 the generally converging scrolls along the borders of the upper part of the handle, and 5 the shell-like ornament at the head of the handle.

Referring to the reverse side of the handle, 6 are the parallel threads along the borders thereof, 7 the diverging scroll-like patterns at the bottom thereof, 8 the inward scrolls midway of the handle extending from one border, 9 the opposing combined scroll and foliate ornamentation along the other border, l0 the combined inwardly extending scroll and foliate ornamentations extending from the borders along the upper part of the handle, and ll the drooping foliate ornamentation at the head of the handle.

I claiml. In the design for handles for spoons, &c., the obverse side, substantially as shown in the accompanying drawings.

2. In the design for handles for spoons, &c., the reverse side, substantially as shown in the accompanying drawings.

3. The design for handles for spoons, dre., substantially as shown in the accompanying drawings.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
