Pair of English Oak and Brass-Banded Oval Buckets with Handles

About the Item

This pair of oval buckets offers a charming and practical glimpse into traditional English craftsmanship. Likely dating to the late 19th century, each piece is constructed from warm-toned oak staves and reinforced with two polished brass bands. The coopered wood construction is both sturdy and appealing, with the brass accents adding a refined gleam that complements the rich grain of the oak. The interiors are darkly patinated, showing honest signs of age and use consistent with their utilitarian origins—possibly as coal scuttles, log baskets, or even for kindling storage. Each bucket features a carved handle with a small heart-shaped detail beneath the grip, offering both function and decorative appeal. The gently tapered oval form gives them a balanced, slightly squat profile that feels stable and grounded. Whether used for fireplace storage, as cachepots, or simply as sculptural accents, this pair brings both warmth and authenticity to a traditional or rustic interior.
