Descripción
Spoons of teaspoon size having a bowl pierced in a decorative pattern and long handle with a pointed end. The bowls of mote spoons were used to strain tea and to skim leaf particles and dust motes from the surface of a cup of tea. The thin pointed handle was used to clear clogged spouts of pots. For spoons of similar size with pierced bowls but lacking pointed handles, used specifically to serve olives, use "olive spoons."
