About the Item

An evocative antique Indian wooden water bucket, handcrafted from dark-stained timber and bound with iron bands. The bucket’s cylindrical form is composed of vertical staves joined by two broad metal hoops, showing traces of age, wear, and use that enrich its surface with character and authenticity. The arched forged-iron handle adds both sculptural presence and practical balance, rising gracefully to a total height of approximately 22.5 inches when fully extended. Once a utilitarian vessel for carrying water or grain, the bucket now stands as a beautiful decorative object—an artifact of daily life shaped by time and craftsmanship. Its rich, nearly black patina and visible tool marks make it especially suited for rustic, country, or wabi-sabi interiors, where texture and material honesty take precedence. It can serve as a planter, umbrella stand, or sculptural accent beside a hearth or entryway. A genuine 19th-century Indian piece that bridges functionality and folk artistry, celebrating the enduring appeal of handcrafted wood and iron.
