Value 2

A couple of strands are intertwining!  In thinking about value and having loved Mary’s spoon collection, I was reminded of a spoon from my own collection, a Victorian, ceramic measuring spoon.  This got me thinking about making some kind of measure of value.  At the moment I am thinking spoons, but it may develop into other things like cups.  Instead of being marked with the usual units of measurement the objects would carry a value measurement such as precious, priceless, worthy etc stamped into the clay or maybe written on a tag.  I would aim to reference Mary’s spoons in some way.  Perhaps some would be made then broken, torn or worn etc.  I like the idea that these ones might carry the highest value measure. Perhaps I might include some accession numbers or some of the unknown initials marked on the spoons.  Lots to play with!  Sharon
