I cannot offer any background information on this article but its very impressive and is fashioned in a very primitive, arts & crafts manner. It is extremely well handcrafted with an exaggerated hammered texture, featuring a very wide two-lipped bowl and a hook handle.
Made by John Wannamaker of Philadelphia, c.1900. Hallmarked with an eagle between two rectangles. In one is the maker's mark JW and in the other is 925/100.
Dimensions: 16.5" long. Bowl is 6" wide.

Quite an early, robust marrow scoop with crisp clear hallmarks, for London 1739, maker John Jacob. The earlier scoops did tend to be heavier but, due to age, did suffer from rubbed, illegible hallmarks. That is what is so exciting, if one could find marrow scoops exciting, about this example. It has all the features you desire: good age, good gauge, good marks. Dimensions: 8.75" long. 2 Troy.oz.
