The spoons range in size from a foot to two feet and have one or (rarely) two parallel bowls. The handle of the spoon is always decorated and often is related to the human form and often feature a pair of legs like this example.Among the Dan, the owner of the spoon is called wa ke de, "at feasts acting woman."
