Antique Copper Hearth Bucket with Iron Handle
$215.00
Hand-crafted in the late 19th century, this grand copper hearth bucket features a hand-hammered brass-brazed seam and heavy forged iron ear brackets. Carried through decades of daily domestic life, its substantial copper body carries a rich verdigris patina (green in pictures) along the base and a sturdy iron bail handle. Perfect as a floor-standing hearth accent to hold firewood, tucked by an entryway for umbrellas, or styled with dried branches in a cozy living room nook.
Condition Notes:
- Features authentic verdigris oxidation along the interior and exterior base, a brass-brazed side seam, and light rust on the forged iron handle; the heavy copper vessel body remains completely solid and leak-free.
- Striking cluster of historic heat-patina spots on one side.
- Displays a breathtaking, organic spectrum along the base, seen in photos where brilliant turquoise malachite blooms (verdigris) blend with scorched terracotta embers and deep plum charcoal tones, creating a true painterly work of time.
Specifications:
- Dimensions: 14.75" Dia (15" W handle to handle) x 9" H (17" H with handle upright)
- Origin/Era: 1870s-1985 (American or English Folk Utilitarian)
