Stave Wood Bucket with Lining
13 x 17 inches. This bucket features traditional stave construction, characteristic of American primitive utility vessels. The cylinder is composed of vertical wooden staves held together by four flat wooden hoops, each secured with hand-driven iron staples. The exterior is finished with a warm honey-toned stain that highlights the vertical wood grain. It includes a recessed, unattached solid wood lid with a beveled edge. The interior is finished with a custom-fitted quilted fabric lining featuring a floral pattern in shades of pink, green, and blue, which is secured to the upper rim with small upholstery tacks. The underside of the base features handwritten notations in blue ink. One vertical stroke with a horizontal cross-bar is followed by a dot. To the right, an alphanumeric sequence reads 5-112-78 or S-112-78. Above this is a cursive script that appears to read boy by Jerry or boy by Jenny. The base construction shows a recessed panel design.
