Awesome vintage steampunk Industrial or rustic copper kettle drum center table by W.F.L. Drum Company. Comprised of copper painted aluminum arms

Everyone dances to the beat of their own drum, it’s what makes the world go ‘round! But let me tell you something… You are about to BUST A MOVE when you lay eyes on this INCREDIBLE copper kettle drum, we are offering as a REAL drum table, by W.F.L. Drum Company!!! AAAAHHHHH!! IT. IS. AWESOME!!! Its exclusive style borders between Industrial, steampunk, and a bit rustic. It is center table height, and it is comprised of a copper kettle surrounded by copper painted aluminum base, arms, and foot pedal and a fabulous drum skin top with a painted steel rim and vertical chrome handles. A fun fact… W.F.L. Drum Company was established by William F. Ludwig and a MONUMENTAL moment for Ludwig was on a Sunday night in February 1964 “The Beatles” preformed “All My Loving” as the intro song on “The Ed Sullivan Show” as Ringo Starr jammed out on his iconic drums which bared the Ludwig logo! Sheer popularity pandemonium for Ludwig after that! This is the ULTIMATE must-have for a music enthusiast or drum lover!!! How awesome would this be displayed in a music room in a corner between a couple of chairs holding a record player and set of vinyl, in a game room as a lamp table, or just an entertaining way to display your Beatles or Ringo Starr memorabilia? We think it would be fun to put a piece of glass either directly on top of the drum OR float the glass on the chrome handles and give it a floating effect! There are just TOO many fun possibilities with this especially unique find!
The Ludwig Drum Company was established in 1909 by William F. and Theobald Ludwig. William Jr. was a professional drummer but since that work was irregular, he and his brother Theobald opened a drum shop in Chicago and called it Ludwig
Ludwig. They started with a concept for the design
manufacture of a functional bass drum pedal. Theobald died in 1918 and William continued on his own. In the late 1920s, the company was sold to the C.G. Conn instrument company and William Ludwig stayed on to run the company for Conn. Eventually, William Ludwig decided to leave Conn and start a new company of his own. He was unable to use the Ludwig name since that trademark now belonged to Conn who continued to market Ludwig
Ludwig drums. In 1937, William F. Ludwig bought a factory building and started The WFL Drum Company (his initials). The company continued producing drums at a small scale for the duration of World War II, but William got back to the idea of making the company a large drum manufacturer after the war ended. WFL was a competitor with Ludwig and Ludwig. Conn combined their two drum brands into one in the early 1950s, forming Leedy
Ludwig, and then decided to quit the drum business altogether. In 1955, William and his son Bill Jr. were able to buy the Ludwig trademark back from Conn, and over the next few years their company and its products transitioned from the WFL brand to being called "Ludwig" again. Ludwig gained popularity and a global breakthrough in 1964 when the Beatles preformed on The Ed Sullivan Show debuting the Ludwig Logo on Ringo Star’s bass drum being seen by over 73 million people! They became the foremost drum manufacturer in North America for twenty years. In 2002, Ludwig merged with Conn-Selmer and is now located in Elkhart, Indiana.
So, whether you prefer the Stones over the Beatles and Mick over Ringo… We all love the beat of a drum! This copper kettle drum table is a MUST HAVE!!! So, ROCK ON!!!! And make it YOURS!!!
