Georgian mahogany coopered brass bound plate bucket or pail

About the Item

Georgian mahogany coopered plate bucket pail, brass bound, with folding cast brass bow carrying handle, now with tole (metal) liner of later date. English circa 1780 - 1800. The long passages which frequently separated kitchen and dining room in eighteenth century homes made the carrying of plates a formidable task for servants. To facilitate transport, mahogany pails were produced, the open section to enable the plates to be readily handled. In 1769, Chippendale’s firm supplied Sir Edward Knatchbull with ‘a neat mahogany plate basket with brass bow handle.’ This bucket is of excellent quality and original colour. With the metal liner it can be used as a waste paper basket or plant jardiniere.
