Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Tee Spoon, 3/5oz Gold / Nickel / Pink spinning lure #4198

Hammered nickel texture on the oversized blade immediately distinguishes this Luhr Jensen Tee Spoon, item 4198, which was part of their lineup until 2004. At 5" (13 cm) in length and 3/5 oz (17 g) in weight, its presence is bolstered by a sequence of translucent pink spacers that give the body a unique, tiered silhouette. The stamped blade reflects light in multiple directions, while the trailing black hair-dressed treble hook provides a soft, organic contrast to the hard metallic and plastic components. Manufactured in the USA, the assembly is held together by a sturdy wire frame capped with a high-quality swivel to prevent line twist during retrieve. The condition of this specimen is 5/5, showing no signs of wear on the finish or the feathered dressing.
