Vintage patterned enamel bucket

Vintage Patterned Enamel Bucket – c.1920s/30s with Wooden Handle
Full of rustic charm and history, this vintage enamel bucket dates to the 1920s or 1930s and would originally have served as a slops bucket, likely with a perforated lid (now missing). Despite its original purpose, it now makes a brilliant plant container or decorative piece, especially in vintage, country, or cottage-style interiors.
The patterned enamel finish is particularly striking — a rare and unusual design that’s hard to come by these days. It shows its age beautifully, with authentic chips and surface wear, just as you’d expect from a well-used piece of this era.
A wooden grip on the metal handle adds a lovely tactile detail, and overall the bucket is a quality item with a solid feel, sourced from a large English country house.
