Weighing in at 3/4 oz (21 g), this vintage spoon features the iconic Five of Diamonds pattern, consisting of five sharp red diamonds set against a vibrant yellow enamel. The backside of the 2 3/4 inch (7 cm) blade is stamped with the Dardevlet name and the Dearborn, MI location, a hallmark of Eppinger production since the company's relocation in 1959. This specific specimen, identified by product code 12338, is in 5/5 condition with a remarkably clean finish and no visible hook wear on the paint. The classic devil head logo is crisply printed on the convex side, centered amongst the diamond motifs. A sturdy silver-toned treble hook is attached by a heavy-duty split ring, ready for casting or trolling. The polished brass-colored underside remains bright, mirroring the high-quality manufacturing standards used by the Michigan-based firm for over a century.
