Marrow Scoops (or spoons). I mentioned this piece last year, but only showed one example. It is odd utensil that we don't have an everyday use for any more. The fatty marrow from cooked beef and lamb bones being seen as a fine delicacy. Hood comments that Tiffany only had this piece in possibly nine of their patterns. The thought being that servants would scoop the marrow from the bones for the diners.
Broom Corn by Tiffany (9 inches)
Old Colonial by Towle (5 1/2 inches)
Chrysanthemum by Tiffany (8 3/4 inches)
So do you know if Tiffany ever offered Marrow scoop's in the Faneuil pattern? Let me know - BLAIRHANNER1@aol.com
