Early 20th Century English Leather Fire Bucket, 1900
Located in Petworth,West Sussex, GB
An Early 20th Century Antique Tan Leather Fire Bucket
Dating to the late Victorian period, circa 1900, this antique tan leather fire bucket is a fascinating and decorative piece of history. Likely originating from an English country house, it features a beautifully aged patina that exudes character and charm.
The bucket is crafted from richly hued tan leather, which has gracefully aged with amber tones, showcasing a light, time-worn finish. The hessian-lined interior is remarkably clean for its age, making it both visually appealing and versatile for use or display. Adding to its allure is the original rolled leather carry handle, which enhances its practicality and aesthetic.
The fascia is adorned with a Royal coat of arms, further highlighting its heritage and significance. These buckets were traditionally used as fire extinguishers, with water being fetched from nearby sources like rivers or fountains. By the 20th century, the modernization of fire brigades had largely rendered them obsolete, turning items like this into treasured collectibles.
