Is it possible that the other items are indeed for plates and things, while that one item is for holding a hard-bound cookbook? It would hold it tilted at a slight angle for reading while one cooks.

Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

The last picture reminds me of the gizmos that allow you to increase the size of a diagram by tracing the original and all the connecting bits of wood act as multipliers.

And what would one use such a spoon for?
Is it especially made for the Batman mansion?
A little wave to you in the reflection :)

That looks like some sort of spork.

Can you give use the detail of who manufactured the piece?

Hi Anne,
It does, indeed. I was wondering if it might be made for a specific kind of meal or food, like an oyster knife for instance.
It doesn't have a makers' mark, just the stamp DELINOX 18%, which I'm deciphering to mean it's made of 18% stainless steel (de l'inox , French).

Your utensil looks familiar to me though a search with Google did not yield any results.

My first thought was a grapefruit spoon though the search show narrow spoons or sporks.

An my search for a two or three prong spork just yielded forks.

Maybe it is used to hull fruit like strawberries.

Yes, Anne, I think it's a grapefruit spoon!
When I read your reply, I grabbed the spoon to feel the edge with the points and it's actually slightly sharp.
So I'd say grapefruit fork. Thanks!
