Black Wooden Firkin Sugar Bucket
Circa Early - Mid 1900's
Up for sale is this very nice old black firkin sugar bucket. It measures 7 1/2" tall to the top of the lid, by 11" high to the top of the handle when it is raised, by 8" across the top, by 8 5/8" in diameter across the bottom. It is a good sturdy, well made bucket. Comes with it's original lid and handle. It's in excellent condition. The black paint is just beautiful! Nice and grubby primitive looking in all the right places. It is a beautiful firkin! The patina is wonderfully smooth! Has a small splinter in the lid as shown and a light stressed spot on the handle. Neither negatively effect the display in any way! It is bottom signed Woodcroftery and also has a 2.45 on it. I guess it must have cost $2.45 a long time ago when it was new! The display possibilities for firkins are endless! These are especially great as they are not only decorative, but they can also be used for storage. Sorry, only the black firkin bucket is for sale in this listing. I hope to have more firkins added to my store shortly so do check for others. My display props are not included, but do check out my e-bay store for more great items. We will combine shipping on multiple auctions won when possible. Be sure to add me to your favorites list !
