Silversmiths at the time developed a simple basic form where cutlery was forged from two separate parts: the handle and the bowl. To connect these two parts, a decorative element, known as a \"rat tail\" or \"lofje\" (scallop\/lobe), was added to the back.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the 18th century, these \"lofjes\" were playfully integrated into tableware. This led to a design with a distinctive centerline and a \"lofje\" at the front of the cutlery. This style became particularly popular among the nobility and gentry of The Hague, which led to the name \"Haags Lofje.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCutlery in the \"Haags Lofje\" style is characterized by refined, pointed spoon bowls, an elegant, slightly flared handle, classic curves, and the centerline with a \"lofje\" at the end.
