This is a soup ladle made in Budapest, Hungary by Antal Henrik Zipper sometime during the period of 1920 to 1937. It is made of 800 silver, which means that it is a lesser grade than sterling, being comprised of 80% silver plus 20% alloy. It measures about 9 1/4 inches in length, and weighs about 143 grams. Its monogram is MRW. 

Please see the photos as they are very much a part of the description, and this is the exact ladle that you will receive. As is typical for antique European 800 silver flatware serving pieces, it has many small dings and light scratches, and could use a right cleaning, buffing and polishing. Or melt it down. Your call. 

Shipping is free, and your package will be sent Signature Required. This means that you will have to sign for it, which protects us both. 

Thank you.
