A tin-glazed earthenware spoon features a long, dark brown handle sculpted to resemble a gnarled, knobby branch. Pale tan highlights accentuate the knots along the irregular form. This handle extends into a shallow, circular muted green bowl perforated with many small, round holes. A glossy finish and wavy rim define the bowl, which sits at the lower right. The handle slants upward to the left against a neutral gray background.
