A rare survivor of farmhouse tradition, this large late 18th‑century treen grain scoop embodies the rustic ingenuity of Georgian England. Hand‑carved from a single block of timber, its generous form speaks of centuries when grain was measured, poured, and shared at the heart of rural life.
The scoop’s smooth patina, worn by countless hands, tells a story of honest labour and enduring utility. Such treen pieces were not merely tools but companions of the household, bridging the practical and the symbolic: abundance, sustenance, and the rhythm of the agricultural year.
Provenance: England. Late 18th century.
Condition: Good. Please see the images.
Dimensions:
Length: 14.5 inches ≈ 36.8 cm

This is more than a kitchen utensil; it is a tangible echo of Georgian domestic history. For collectors of treen, kitchenalia, or rural antiques, it offers both authenticity and charm — a piece that connects the modern home to the timeless rituals of harvest and hearth.
