This vintage water bucket conjures up images of water-bearing figures illustrated in painted scrolls. Beautifully aged with a warm patina, this Qing-dynasty bucket draws attention to the ingenuity of its manufacture, consisting of staves of cypress bound with iron rings. The handle's curves were hand shaped to make long, laden trips comfortable. Authentically rustic, the bucket adds lovely contrast to a formal garden or contemporary bath.

What They're Saying

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
