Title: Wooden spoon thing?
Post by: Angeldove on October 04, 2009, 11:43:44 AM

I hope I am not a bother here, but I have a ton of old things and I love to hear the history so, if no one minds . . . I'll be asking a lot of questions!   ;)

I have an old spoon thing, but it is not a true spoon as it doesn't have the scooped out part.  It is more like a wooden carved stick with one end larger, like a spoon head.  I think it was used in canning.  There are no logos on it, so I believe it is hand carved.

Could someone give me some information if they have seen any others like it?

The name for wooden tools is treenware.  You will find alot more information under this name!

This looks like it was used for stirring/skimming.
