Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Little Jewel, 3/16oz Nickel fishing spoon #11132

Nickel plating characterizes the exterior of this Luhr Jensen 'Little Jewel' (product code 11132), a vintage casting spoon that has been out of production for many years. Stamped clearly on the reverse are the maker's mark and the 3/16oz (5g) weight, while the convex front side is distinguished by a textured, holographic prism insert designed for high visibility. This specific specimen measures 1 1/4" (3.3cm) in length and originates from the brand's USA manufacturing period in Hood River, Oregon. The hardware includes the original factory-installed treble hook and split rings, which remain bright and structurally sound. A 5/5 condition rating reflects the well-preserved state of the polished metal finish and the prismatic tape inlay.
