Beautifully rustic and full of character, this antique French copper bucket, known as a ferrat, dates to the early 19th century and hails from the Auvergne region. Traditionally used to carry water, this handcrafted copper vessel has aged gracefully, with rich patina and verdigris to the handles and surface that speak to its long life and daily use.
A striking example of French farmhouse decor, it can now be repurposed as a champagne bucket for outdoor entertaining, a rustic planter, or even a fireplace log holder. Its twin handles and warm aged copper make it ideal for adding character to a warm rustic living room, French country kitchen, or even a covered patio. Perfect for lovers of vintage copper cookware, antique utility pieces, and rustic French interiors.
