Hammered textures define the 'crystal' finish on this 2/5oz (11g) spoon, a design choice meant to maximize light reflection from various angles. Manufactured in the USA by Eppinger, the back of the 2 1/4" (5.5cm) blade is deeply stamped with the 'DARDEVLE IMP' moniker alongside its country of origin. This specific specimen, identified by product code 20000, showcases a gold-toned surface that provides a high-flash profile suitable for both casting and trolling applications. The condition is rated 5/5, with the metallic finish retaining its original luster and the hardware showing no signs of wear. A sturdy split ring connects the tear-drop-shaped blade to a classic tinned treble hook, ready for targeting freshwater predators.
