Description: | Medieval/post-medieval cast copper-alloy spoon which has been tinned, c. 1300-1650. Spoon bowl is sub-oval in shape and has a flat stem which is incomplete. Maker's mark inside the bowl consists of a dotted circle with three alternating keys inside. No original copper-alloy surface has survived and has been abraded to a light green, but the tinning survives well. The break edges are worn. It measures 85.56mm long (of which 28.52mm is the stem), 45.78mm wide across the bowl and weighs 20.68g. Similar spoons can be found in Egan, G. 1998. The Medieval Household. Daily Living c. 1150-c.1450, pages 244-252.
