Zeeland Mussel Scoop
Silver tin

Mussel scoop - silver tin

With this chic silver tin mussel scoop, you can scoop the mussels straight from the mussel pan onto your plate. And the fries are also good with it. The silver-colored mussel (13 cm long) has a built-in spring so that it springs open again to fish the next scoop of mussels from the pan. The mussel scoop was developed out of the love for the mussel culture in Zeeland, but not just to stay in Zeeland. The mussel scoop is not suitable for the dishwasher, rinse with warm water after use. The silver tin mussel scoop is packed in a luxurious black box with a certificate of authenticity. A piece of jewelry on the table and can be perfectly combined with the Zeeland Mussel cutlery!

About silver tin

The mussel scoop is cast in a silver tin. Tin can be finished in a number of ways: in an antique color, matt, or highly polished. The highly polished version is called silver tin, but there is no silver in it at all. When you used to want to buy a silver tea or coffee set, but you had a little less to spend (or wanted to spend), you had a service made of silver tin. The tinsmith made the pewter service and polished it until the tin shone like a mirror and had a silvery-white color. This was therefore sold as silver tin. To keep it shiny, you should brush silver tin at least once a year. Many products are still made from silver tin, for example, the Championship Scale of the KNVB.

Anovi, the mussel cutlery creators

Located in the village of Dreischor in Zeeland, it develops and manufactures products from the Zeeland culture. The ambition of Alex and Susanne den Hoed - the duo behind Anovi - is to develop a new product every year, to produce it locally, and to launch it. No one-hit wonders, but beautiful, functional products with a timeless design that is in demand for a longer period of time and that are not available everywhere. The mussel scoop is a good example of this.
