Museum Archive: Panther Martin Svizzero Martellato, 1/8oz Silver fishing spoon #17227

Crafted in Italy, the silver hammered finish on this 1/8oz (3.3g) spoon provides a classic texture designed for high visibility. This Panther Martin Svizzero Martellato, cataloged under product code 17227, measures 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length and retains its original luster. The hammered dimples across the metal surface are a signature element of Italian-made Panther Martin lures, historically used to maximize light reflection. Its construction features a teardrop-shaped blade directly rigged with a sharp treble hook via a sturdy split ring. At the head, a wire-wrapped line tie ensures a secure connection for casting or trolling. Being a condition 6 specimen, the lure is unused and shows no signs of wear from the water. The silver coloration is uniform across the entire body, from the tip of the blade to the base of the hardware.
