Description

The listing, Faceted Crystal Ball Brass Scoop! Beautiful but odd! has ended.

This is a really weird item... We had an Up with People student from New Hampshire stay with us in the late 90's. He gave us this odd polished brass scoop with crystal ball handle as a thank you for letting him stay with us... At the time, I thought he said it was made by Waterford, but I have looked high and low online and not found anything like it anywhere. It is too big to be a coffee scoop I think, but I that's what he told me it was for... It is quite heavy. The crystal does have a small pit on it where one of the points is chipped. See the 4th photo.

If you like crystal and you like odd things, this may just be the thing for you!

It looks like a measuring spoon, maybe a tablespoon. It would be good to hang around the front door for Feng shui, (it would cause the bad energy to break up into small particles or something like that).. I fanned and also I am bidding..
