Scope and Contents
62 x 40 mm. The maker had his wares all set out in rows and priced according to size and design, from a halfpenny to one and a halfpenny each. They far outdo the cheap European spoons as they are cheaper, lighter and easily cleaned and float on top of the milk whereas spoons either have to be placed on the ground or sink to the bottom of a milk filled calabash.
