About this object

The handle of the spoon is shaped like a rough hewn tree trunk. On the top stands a large bird that looks like an ostrich or emu. Half way down sits a woodpecker. Between them is an angled object which appears to be a boomerang with possibly Indian designs on it. The bowl is plain.
