EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pair of spoons with intricate cast decorations, discovered at a site in Penbryn, Ceredigion, Wales. Dating back to the Iron Age and made from cast iron, these spoons hold great historical significance. Currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum in the University of Oxford, UK, they offer us a glimpse into ancient rituals and practices. These spoons were not mere utensils; they held a special purpose in divination and fortune-telling. Used as a pair for predicting the future, their unique design suggests that they were highly valued by those who sought guidance from higher powers. The craftsmanship evident in their detailed cast decoration is truly remarkable. Each spoon tells its own story through delicate patterns and symbols etched onto its surface. The expertise required to create such intricate designs highlights the skill of Iron Age artisans. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era where spirituality intertwined with everyday life. These spoons serve as reminders of our ancestors' beliefs and traditions - artifacts that bridge the gap between past and present. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's collaboration with Bridgeman Images, we can now appreciate this extraordinary piece of history captured forever on paper. This print invites us to reflect on our connection to ancient civilizations while marveling at their ingenuity and creativity.
