1800’s Antique Brass Pot Pail Bucket Americana Decor Waterbury Ct HW Hayden EUC.

This a really nice, very early antique brass bucket. Very scarce, very unusual, and very desirible for use or as an Americana antique decor piece.

It has all the attributes and look of a Revolutionary War/colonial period item. It would have had a variety of uses on a farm. Obviously, brass, while expensive to buy, had great rust resistance for long life. Possibly intended as a water bucket, but could also be used for cooking.

VERY nice look, with slanted walls. Made of heavy duty sheet brass, with a thick handmade iron bale (handle). The handle was clearly made by an early blacksmith, and has nice curved, hand made ends as shown. Side holders are riveted with large copper rivets as shown. Has been cleaned and polished to a high shine. Measures about 8 1/2" high, 13" diameter at the top, and 10" diameter at the bottom. It has a GREAT SHAPE AND WOULD MAKE A GREAT DECORATOR IN A VARIETY OF LOCATIONS IN YOUR HOUSE!! Also, can still be used to carry water, for cooking, or hold tools or utensils. In very good condition overall.

This is particularly nice as it is marked and has maker information stamped on the bottom. Rarely found with such maker information. Says Made by Waterbury Brass".

Very nice looking, very unusual item, and one of the nicer looking early American/Americana items you will find.

A great item for a collection, for display, for re-enacting use, or as a great decorator. VERY RARE TO FIND NICE ANTIQUE BUCKETS IN BRASS, ESPECIALLY WITH A NICE EARLY BLACKSMITH MADE HANDLE!!
