Hi Brian, where are you located? Where I am in Hong Kong, there's an antique and curio store that sells at least spoons. Not sure about caps though. The spoons they have in stock are made from ivory and mammoth tusk. The manufacturing can't date back to Qing dynasty but they are at least decades old as I was told. But again, due to ivory trade restriction I wonder whether it's gonna be an issue to have the ivory spoons shipped or brought out of the territory...
