About the Item
Complete Set of Six Graduated Copper Haystack Measures, English, Early Victorian
An exceptional and complete set of six antique graduated copper haystack measures, dating to the early Victorian period, circa 1830–1860. These traditional English measures range from 1 gallon down to ⅛ gill and retain their classic conical 'haystack' form, each with a bold flared rim and side handle.
Each vessel is fitted with a lead verification plug stamped by a local authority, affirming their use as standardised liquid measures. The set exhibits a handsome warm patina with polished surfaces, highlighting the rich pink hue of the copper. Some historical repairs and light dinks are visible, consistent with age and practical use.
