Description: | An unfinished cast copper alloy spoon of probable Roman date. The spoon measures 87.4mm by 26.4mm by 6.6mm and weighs 25.31g. The short handle, which is a similar length to the bowl, has an unbroken rounded end, suggesting that the spoon was miscast and hence never finished. There are various casting sprues around the edges of the spoon as a result. The spoon has a pear-shaped bowl, squared shoulders and a narrowed handle with a circular cross-section. The handle continues to be defined in relief along part of the back of the bowl.
