Condition
The handle is warped, probably due to climate changes. There are some scratches to the tip of the spoon and handle and minor nicks to the lacquer, but overall the spoon appears to be in good condition.

Lacquer spoons of the Song dynasty are extremely rare and the present example is special for its fashioning of an elegant curve that creates an ‘S’ shape. Spoons of this type were much valued for their use in the tea ceremony. It is reminiscent of a gilded bronze spoon, excavated in 1988 from a tomb dated to the Northern Song period, in Wuli Chong, Hefei, Anhui province, as mentioned by Peter Lam in Layered Beauty, Hong Kong, 2010, p. 34.
See a Han dynasty red lacquer spoon of similar ‘S’ form, that possibly served as inspiration to later spoons, illustrated in Im Zeichen des Drachen, Munchen, 2007, pl. 11, in the Linden Museum Stuttgart; and a black lacquer spoon with a straight handle, also of the Han dynasty, included in the exhibition Toyo no urushi kogei, Tokyo National Museum, Tokyo, 1977, cat. no. 415.
