Tudor Trencher Replica

Wooden Tudor Trencher Replica 20 x 23cm

A great 'history mystery' object, who can discover what the trencher is?

• A great starting point when comparing historical artefacts to their modern day equivalents or for historical enquiry. Why is the object made of wood? Who would have used it?

• This Tudor plate was introduced at the start of the 17th century. The central hollow would contain meat and the small hollow salt. A useful comparative material for rich and poor tudors, and to modern day equivalents.
