A very large cone shaped barrel with a pierced shelf midway.

To be honest we do not really know what the original purpose of this was, but it would make a lovely looking container for a large plant or large flower display in a big hallway or conservatory.

The condition is very good with a great colour and patina.

FAQs

Coopered barrels are wooden vessels constructed from individual shaped staves bound together by hoops, historically used for storing dry goods, grain, or processing agricultural produce.

Coopers traditionally utilised durable timbers such as oak, pine, or chestnut for staves, securing them with flexible wooden hoops, wicker, or iron bands.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-shaped staves, organic wear patterns, historical marks of use, and traditional binding materials such as split wood or hand-formed metal.

These floor-standing vessels function as functional accents, serving as umbrella stands, stick stands, or plant containers in hallways and entrances.

Timber vessels require stable indoor humidity to prevent the wood staves from shrinking or loosening, along with gentle dusting using a soft dry cloth.
