Vintage Wooden Water Bucket Carrier - Shoulder Yoke - 44" Long, Rustic Wall Accent

Product Description:  This early 20th century, shoulder yoke would look fantastic as a  wall accent.  Once used to rest on the shoulders to carry two buckets of water or milk, this early shoulder carrier is hand- hewn from a single piece of medium-tone wood with double handles and a concave neck support.  The tip of the right end of the yoke is broken off, along with a surface crack starting from the end of where neck opening begins.  The cause may have been from carrying heavy bucket loads. Fantastic rustic, wall-accent and conversational piece.
