A Small Oak Coopered Barrel, Stick/Umbrella Stand or Planter

A small oak barrel, with a hole drilled in the bottom, suggesting it has been used as a planter in the past. It has a diameter of 33 cm, and a 40 cm circumference. Would make a fascinating piece of reception hall decor, with a traditional distillery appeal. Displays a desirable aged patina and in good original order. Presents rich caramel hues and a fine and interesting grain beneath a wax polish finish. Steel coopering with an appealing tarnish commensurate with age. This is an endearing antique coopered distillery barrel which could be used as a lovely planter or stick stand. Waxed, polished
