Description: | A complete but folded cast pewter spoon of post-medieval date. The spoon has a sub-oval bowl from which a circular stem extends. The stem terminates in a single collar surmounted by an elaborate stylised acorn knop. The front of the bowl has a stamped maker's mark, but this is indiscernible because the bowl of the spoon has been bent back towards the stem. The metal is a mid grey colour and is slightly worn. The spoon (bent) is 116.3mm (length) x 49.5mm (width), 10.2mm (thickness) and weighs 37.58g.Similar examples can be seen in Egan (2005, p.110-117) and they date to c. 1500-1700 AD.
