Featured Odd german majolica thingy

Hi folks

had a good day of it yesterday looking through the thrifts in our nearest town, hadn't been back for a while as last time it was terrible

found this very unusual interesting looking thing for very little

not sure if majolica is the right term

or what the little spoons are for

or what its supposed to be of

a few little chips here and there, but too cool to pass

any thoughts or info appreciated

 

A little souvenir from Heidelberg.

very helpful, thanks deb. i'm guessing for wine tasting then

 

That was my first thought... The German equivalent of a tasse du vin.

marvelous, makes it more interesting than little ashtrays etc

 

The internet tells me that would be a weinprobierschale.

German is helpful that way.
