Museum Archive: Vintage Panther Martin Svizzero Siluro, 3/16oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #10259

Weighing exactly 3/16oz (6g), the Italian craftsmanship behind this Panther Martin Svizzero Siluro is immediately apparent in its sleek, teardrop profile. The 2 1/4" (6cm) body features a striking Nickel / Blue finish, where the top face is divided between a shimmering silver base and a deep blue accent adorned with dark, vertical markings. Turning the lure over reveals a clean, polished nickel underside designed for maximum light reflection. Panther Martin lures from Italy are a staple in vintage tackle boxes, and this specific specimen, listed under Product Code 10259, remains in 5/5 condition. The hardware is remarkably well-preserved, featuring a split ring connected to a feathered treble hook. The white feathers provide a distinct visual profile in the water, while the integrated barrel swivel at the head is a functional addition to prevent line twist during casting sessions.
