Bidspirit auction | Bronze Rattail Spoon Mold w/
Bronze Rattail Spoon Mold w/ Casting - Length: 7 7/8 inches. This lot features a two-part hinged gravity-pour spoon mold constructed of dark, heavy bronze. The mold is designed to cast a rattail spoon, a style distinguished by a structural ridge that extends from the handle base onto the reverse of the bowl. The mold consists of two interlocking halves that fit together using alignment pins. While the exterior and interior surfaces lack readable maker names, stamps, or hallmarks, one half of the mold has a small hole drilled through the lower portion of the handle. Accompanying the mold is a single pewter or lead sample casting that demonstrates the intended form of the final spoon, showing the characteristic reinforced ridge on the reverse.
