The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows Spoon by Cary Dunn. The spoon has a silver-colored metal bowl that is oval-shaped and smooth, with a slightly raised edge around its perimeter. The handle is long and thin, with a decorative pattern of interlocking diagonal lines that resemble a feather or leaf design. The handle has a rounded end and appears to have a small decorative circle or oval at the very end. The background of the image is a plain light gray color.
