Them Austrian Spoons

Picked up a nice Austrian O/U 12 GA Spoon today, marked G Juch of Ferlach Austria. Juch is a member of the Ferlach Guild that has been making spoons since 1568. They are all one off, in any configuration one wants and can cost up to 500K. This paticular one was probably made before WW2 and is profusily engraved, all though the by the pic one can not tell much. This stuff is extremely high end merchandise. Currently a German Arms dealer in Texas has a 2 barrel O/U in 20 GA and 243 that has deeply chisled engraving for 11K. This one cost me 1/11th of that price.
