Description: | The incomplete copper-alloy spoon bowl of a mandolin-shaped spoon dating to the second to fourth century AD. The handle end of the bowl survives. The rest of the bowl is missing due to an old break. It measures 22.4mm in surviving length and 18mm in width. On the underside of the bowl, there is a triangular ridge which would have extended to form the stem. Traces of a white metal coating can be seen on both faces of the bowl. A similar spoon has been found at Hatcheston, Suffolk (Blagg, Plouviez, Tester 2004 122, no 144). As it has a mandolin-shaped bowl, this spoon can be classifed as a Crummy Type 3. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 100
