Know before you buy
Yes, this piece is crafted from premium sterling silver, consistent with Tiffany & Co.'s standard for high-quality metalwork.
To maintain its luster, hand wash the bucket with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch or tarnish the silver surface.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the thumbprint indentations provide a tactile grip, making it easier to handle the bucket when it is cold or condensation has formed on the exterior.
While the sterling silver construction is durable and elegant, it does not feature vacuum-sealed insulation. It is designed primarily for serving ice during social gatherings rather than long-term storage.
Like all sterling silver, this piece may develop a natural patina or tarnish when exposed to air. Regular, gentle polishing with a silver-specific cloth will keep it looking bright and reflective.
