I love the long handle of this old wooden spoon or ladle, with carved notch at the end that also looks a bit like an old key. The bowl is not especially deep, so better I think for serving stew than soup, and then handily hanging up. 

It's certainly fairly old and has seen a lot of use; the wood of the bowl's interior is a bit rough, but the back and handle is mostly worn very smooth from many years of use, with just a little cracking to the surface of the wood visible here and there. 9 7/8" long x 2 5/8" wide x 1" deep.
