A vintage French brocante find, this impressive antique copper ladle is a wonderful piece of traditional French kitchenalia, with an exceptionally long 63cm handle, tin lining and substantial 17cm diameter copper bowl.

At least 80 years old, this is quite different from an everyday domestic serving ladle. Its unusually long handle is associated with traditional hearth and open-fire cooking, allowing the cook to reach into large cooking pots or vessels positioned over the fire while remaining further away from the heat. 

Today, its impressive proportions make it particularly appealing as a decorative piece. Hung on a wall alongside antique copper pans and utensils, it would make a fabulous statement in a French country kitchen, farmhouse interior, restaurant, café or collected vintage kitchen display.
