Medieval wooden spoon based on a historical find.
This medieval wooden spoon is made using traditional carving techniques and is based on a find from the moated castle of Rodewisch.This short wooden spoon made of acacia wood is a typical representative of late medieval wooden spoons and dates back to the end of the 15th century with its short, curved handle and drop-shaped bowl.
In addition to long-handled spoons, which were mainly used as cooking spoons, wooden spoons in the late Middle Ages usually had a very short handle and a wide bowl and were sometimes decorated with simple carvings.
The medieval wooden spoon from Rodewisch has a very pleasant, warm wood colour and a carefully smoothed surface.
The dimensions are 13.5 x 5 cm.
