Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Little Jewel, 3/4oz Gold / Blue fishing spoon #8387

Polished gold plating covers one half of the spoon's face, while the other side is finished in a solid, deep blue. Stamped on the reverse of this 3/4oz (21g) brass body are the "LITTLE JEWEL" name and its USA origin, marking its identity as the vintage Luhr Jensen product code 8387. At 2 1/2" (6.5cm) in length, this specimen represents a classic era of Northwest tackle manufacturing from before the model was discontinued. The back also features a clearly visible weight marking next to the Luhr Jensen logo and diamond icon. Hardware includes a single, original silver-toned treble hook connected by a sturdy split ring. Having earned a condition rating of 5/5, the reflective surfaces remain bright and the paint transition is crisp.
