Antique watering can
Antique Galvanised Zinc Watering Can – GR Stamped, King George V Era (1910–1936)
A characterful and practical piece of garden history, this antique galvanised zinc watering can is stamped with “GR” beneath a crown, marking it as a product of the King George V period (1910–1936).
With its wide spout and lidded top—likely indicating past use for carrying hot water for bathing—this can combines form and function. It features a classic swing carrying handle and a fixed rear pouring handle. The spout bears a dent, consistent with age and use, adding to its rustic charm.
An ideal addition to any gardenalia collection or as a decorative accent for cottage or farmhouse interiors.
Approx. dimensions: Height to top of swing handle 34cm, height to top of can 18cm, base 20cm x 15cm.
