    MINIATURE SET OF SMALL DIPPERS OR LADLES
    Hand Wrought by Whitesmith,
    THOMAS LOOSE
    Leesport, Pennsylvania
    Approximate Date - 1986
    Note the delicate iron work on the rattail tip of the handles and the snake head tip
    as it joins the scoop portion of the dipper with two copper brads.
    Also note the fine etching on the stems of each one.
    The smallest has a particularly interesting decoration.
    Please see the description written by Tom on the purpose and techniques
    of his work, which is found in the last photo in the photo section.
