Copper Dairy Bucket

SOLD

Code: E18158

Dimensions:

H: 29cm (11.4")Di: 28cm (11")



A 19th century, French copper bucket. This piece would originally have been made as a milking bucket, as the interior was tinned, but now would be useful as either a coal bucket or a waste paper bin. It is nicely shaped and has a ridged base and rim and a steel handle. It is made from a substantial gauge of copper and it has a castellated seam up the side. The raised lugs, on the side, also have castellated seams to attach them to the bucket. It dates from c.1870. There is a split in the copper, on one side of one of the  handles, but other than this it is in very good condition. 
Price includes postage within the U.K.  Shipping to the U.S.A.  add £35. Western Europe  add £10.
