Description: | An example of a decorated toilet spoon. A similar example can be found in Hattatt (1989; 483: fig 197). The instrument may have been used for medical purposes, perhaps to push back cuticles (Crummy, 1983; 59).The item itself is 136.42mm long, the shank has a diameter of 2.49mm, the decoration has a diameter of 6.80mm and it weighs 6.70g. The decoration has a style that is very similar to that seen on some pins, which it could be mistaken for. Cool (1990; 157) has a particular group of pins, group 6 which are very alike in terms of decoration.
