Antique marrow scoops

Antique marrow scoops were produced from the 17th century and were used to scoop out bone marrow. These scoops have always the same size with a small and a large end to cater for all kind of bone. Marrow scoops are plain in design but sometimes have a crest on the wider end.

Most pieces today available were produced in the late 18th century, so earlier scoops are more expensive.
