STURIA Mother of Pearl Caviar Spoon
Choose options
A caviar spoon made from 100% natural mother of pearl — the traditional material for serving caviar, and the one used in professional caviar service worldwide. Metal spoons can react with caviar at a chemical level, imparting a metallic taste that interferes with the roe's flavour. Mother of pearl is completely inert: it does not alter the taste, temperature, or texture of the caviar in any way. This is why it has been the standard for as long as caviar has been served.
Each spoon is crafted from a single piece of natural mother of pearl. Because the material is organic, no two spoons are exactly alike — expect slight variations in colour, shape, and iridescence. This is a characteristic of the material, not a defect.
The question of why metal is avoided while caviar itself is stored in metal tins comes up often. The answer is that the inside of all caviar tins is lined with a food-safe varnish specifically to prevent contact between the metal and the roe. A serving spoon has no such barrier — the caviar sits directly on the surface, which is why the material matters.
