Know before you buy
The bucket measures 9.75 inches in width and 5.5 inches in depth. It is sized to comfortably hold one standard bottle of champagne or wine alongside ice.
The bucket is crafted from galvanized metal and is designed to hold ice and water directly. However, if you are concerned about potential condensation on delicate surfaces, we recommend placing a protective coaster or tray underneath.
No, this model does not feature a drain plug. Given its size, it is easily tipped over a sink to empty any remaining water.
This piece is designed specifically for indoor use. While the galvanized metal is durable, the aged patina finish is best preserved away from direct outdoor elements and prolonged moisture.
To preserve the warm patina and verdigris finish, simply wipe the interior and exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbers, which could damage the antique-style aesthetic.
