Hand Forged Sun Face Ladle

This early ladle has a hand-forged, spiral shaft​, that terminates in a double-sided "sun face" with copper eyes.  The shaft is attached to the copper bowl with copper brads.  Possibly African-American.  Early to mid 1800's.  Measuring approximately 17" in length with the bowl diameter being 4".  The sun face at the top measures approximately 1 1/8" in diameter.  A great piece of early folk art!
