About the Item

This large size 19th century hand-hammered copper cauldron cook pot with rich chocolate brown patina is paired with a heavy wrought iron tripod.

Well-crafted to withstand the punishments of daily use, these rugged items hold great rustic charm, and can easily find functional and decorative uses in a wide variety of interior decor styles. A catchall container for firewood or magazines perhaps, or an interior or exterior planter? This product of traditional handcraft born of basic necessity carries stories of the past into its new present day life.
