About this item
With a tap at both ends, this very attractive majolica spirit barrel would have once stood on a stand and held two different spirits. Its rather more subtle majolica palette, indicates to me that this piece is of European manufacture. The only mark is an impressed B, but I have been unable to attribute it to any one maker. The length is 153 mm (6 inches) and it measures 127 mm (5 inches) in diameter. It is in very good condition apart from the loss of one of its pewter taps and the stand.
Condition : One of the pewter taps is missing, as is its stand.
Materials : Earthenware
Origin : Continental
Manufacture Date : c.1890
