Humble, Beautiful Antique Carved Wooden Spoon / Butter Paddle orange ceramic and tongue wagging as it

and tongue wagging as it surely glimpses a predator on the horizon

There is also a caduceus staff

with what appear to be the initials of his maker subtly carved into his belly

The wood on the box here has seen better days

Humble, Beautiful Antique Carved Wooden Spoon / Butter Paddle orange ceramic and tongue wagging as itOne challenge about selling things online it is very hard to communicate how they feel in one's hand; this old hand carved spoon, worn completely smooth, is a complete joy to hold. With its short handle I believe it is a butter paddle, but could be used for all sorts of things. A humble but to my sensibilities very beautiful thing. 7 1 8" l x 2 5 8" w x 5 8" thick and in excellent antique condition with a wonderful patina.
