Silver marrow spoon or marrow scoop. Made by silversmith Jan Diederik Pont from Amsterdam. He was active from 1729 to 1767.

Jan Diederik Pont was a prolific maker of tableware and serving utensils. From 1713 to 1719, he was an apprentice to silversmith Johan Gräfenstein in Bremen.

The marrow scoop consists of a short, flat handle with an oval bowl at both ends. One bowl is somewhat wider and blunter, while the other is quite narrow and tapers to a point.

Marked on the back of the handle with master's mark OP, city mark Amsterdam, and year letter s for 1752.

In the past, marrow scoops were used to extract marrow from cooked bones. This was considered a delicacy.

The marrow scoop is in good condition.

Weight: 37.9 grams. Dimensions: 20.5 x 1.4 cm.
