    Size? Looks like a caricature wooden spoon and could have been made by anyone.

    It looks like Anri carvings I’d seen. But there aren’t any markings. Just curious. Thank you.

    Welcome to the forum BSue!!! :happy::happy:

    Your piece is definitely Anri. It is shown on page 56 of Anri Woodcarvings by Philly Rains & Donald Bull. They refer to it as a serving paddle. They also commented that the "serving paddles & scoops are a little harder to find than spoons".

    Thanks for looking it up! Does it note how old it is?
