About This Piece
This large antique brass bucket is a charming example of 19th-century metalwork. Hand-forged with copper rivets and an iron bail handle, this bucket was built to last. The beautifully aged brass showcases a worn patina that has developed over time, along with verdigris on the interior and bottom rim, enhancing its rustic charm.
While this bucket no longer holds water due to hairline cracks in the brass, it remains a fantastic decorative piece. Its weight and 13" diameter make it an excellent choice for storing kindling, organizing household items, or displaying plants. It also works beautifully as a standalone decor piece, bringing history and warmth into any space.
Condition: Antique with dents, wear, and hairline cracks to the brass, consistent with age. Sold in as-found condition.
