My eighteenth-century-specialist colleague points out to me that marrow
spoons, designed specifically to eat the marrow from bones, were around
from the early eighteenth century, as this link confirms:

For those wanting to know how to use them, Martha Stewart will explain:

This dish must have been relatively popular to ensure that a particular
piece of cutlery emerged to facilitate its consumption.
