Wooden spoon thing?
« 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? 

Here's a picture -

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.
