Roman Oyster Spoon
Give someone a gift to treasure with this beautiful reproduction of an original bronze Roman oyster spoon dating from 200-250AD. The oyster spoon was excavated from the River Thames and is now housed in the Museum of London. Cast by hand from the original piece, the spoon is a stunning record of Roman history. Large amounts of oyster shells found along the Thames Valley, along with examples of these spoons, suggest that in Roman times oysters were a common food.Made in EnglandHand finishedCast from an original Roman oyster spoonSolid bronze
