The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Green patina metal ladle with a long handle. The ladle bowl is triangular and appears to be made of copper or bronze. The handle is thin and has a series of small bumps along its length. The handle ends with a decorative cockerel or rooster figure with its wings spread out. The ladle has a rough texture and shows signs of aging. The background is a plain white surface with a shadow cast by the ladle. The image is by Ladle with Cockerel by artist.
