About the Item
Celebrate the charm of rural French life with this striking antique milk can, marked "Laiterie de Florennes", a historic dairy located in southern Belgium near the French border. Crafted circa 1900, the can is clad in gleaming copper and features a classic cylindrical form with a rounded shoulder, fitted lid, and side-mounted ring handles for easy transport.
Embossed with bold raised lettering across the front, this piece evokes the agricultural heritage and artisanal dairy traditions of the region. The hinged lid with integrated locking handle ensures authenticity and functional appeal, while the beautifully aged surface exhibits a warm, mottled patina rich with character.
In excellent condition commensurate with age and use (dents and age wear), this dairy canister makes a unique decorative statement as a standalone object, umbrella stand, or floral container. A collectible accent perfect for farmhouse, rustic, or French provincial interiors.

19th Century French Iron & Polished Copper "Poissonniere" Fish Kettle with Lid
Located in Dallas, TX
This long antique two-piece "Poissonniere" (or fish pot) was crafted in France, circa 1860.
