  1. I question this being a lead ladle. It seems more the size a blacksmith would use for applying borax to a forge weld.

  2. I would agree that this appears to be a flux ladle. Seems to have been expose to higher heat than a lead ladle needs.

  3. I'm guessing the size of the bowl is about a tablespoon? If so, then I think flux ladle is the best guess.
