Antique Wooden Firkin Bucket Small 7” Sugar Bucket Lid and Bail Handle Grip
Description: Discover the primitive charm of this Antique Wooden Firkin. Once popular during the 19th century households to store a variety of kitchen cooking essentials such as sugar or flour, it is believed that this lidded wooden firkin may have once held butter or cheese. Measuring 7 inches tall with a metal, wire swing handle and wooden grip, it showcases exceptional original appearance. The slightly tapered, cylinder shape body is constructed with staved wooden strips, secured with three finger lap bands, early copper tacks and staples. A superb piece and a nice smaller size for those who collect authentic early American kitchen woodenware.
