Lime spatula
Spatulas for limestone chalk are used to remove the chalk from gourd containers. Burnt chalk is one of the ingredients necessary for the chewing of betel nuts. The finely wrought adornment at the end of the spatula represents a human figure. Little is known about the meaning of these figures.
The object was collected by Lieutenant Paul Werber from Freiburg, 1st Officer in the Imperial Navy who sailed the South Seas for a total of two years on the S.M.S. Cormoran and donated about 100 objects from various regions of Oceania to the museum.
