Spoons
such as this are referenced in countless books on the subject of
Colonial American domestic interiors, a simple, yet crucial item in
regards to open hearth cookware.
Spoons
such as this carried out the various daily duties of stirring various
soups, stews, broths and stocks prepared at the foothold of an open
hearth. The shallow bowl of the piece was perfect for selecting a small
amount of liquid out of the preparation for the hearth attendees to
sample and season as needed.
