Vintage Weller Gypsy King 1, 3/5oz red/white/copper fishing spoon #22831

Copper plating on the reverse side serves as a canvas for the 'Gypsy King 1' stamp, identifying this piece as a genuine Weller creation manufactured in the USA. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) and weighing 3/5 oz (17 g), the spoon is finished with an iconic red and white diagonal stripe pattern over the metal body. This specific specimen, identified by product code 22831, presents in 4/5 condition with light, honest wear. Tiny paint losses are visible near the line tie and along the outer edges, where the copper base shows through. The hardware includes a durable bronzed treble hook mounted with a steel split ring, designed for casting applications. On the back, the hand-scripted font of the brand name and the size '1' stamp provide a tactile connection to mid-century lure production.
