Vintage Oak Barrel Introduction
This is a charming vintage oak barrel, likely originally used for storing or transporting liquor. The barrel features iron banding, adding to its rustic appeal and structural integrity. Measuring 34cm in height and 23cm in diameter, it’s a manageable size for display and would have been a smaller capacity vessel. The construction suggests traditional cooperage techniques, with carefully fitted staves and secure ironwork.
Vintage Oak Barrel Condition
This barrel shows signs of age and use, consistent with its vintage nature. The oak exhibits a lovely patina, and the iron bands display some surface rust, adding to the character. It is offered in its current condition, and would be a desirable piece for collectors of antique barware, rustic decor enthusiasts, or those seeking a unique display item.
