It looks to be a cheese scoop used for serving soft cheeses like stiltion or cottage cheese. Very nice item. If you could post a close up of the handle we can probably identify the pattern. These were made in both sterling and silverplate, primarily before WWI. How long is it?

Hi your pattern is Gloria aka Grenoble, which is highly collectible. Great piece in a desirable pattern.
