It’s a portmanteau playground! “Skoons” is better than “spulls,” I think. They’re made from vintage silver by Tom Sale, aka Pinky Diablo, and are available in both tea- and table-skoon sizes. Of course, the numerous holes limit their utility as spoons; I wonder if the details could be embossed instead of pierced? Also, if the teeth were made a bit sharper they could double as tines, and the whole utensil would become a “skull spork.” I’ll leave that one to your own imaginations to skoonerize…er, I mean, spoonerize.
