Description
Our coal bucket brings a practical touch of the hearth to the room, made from metal with an antique pewter finish that carries a soft silver sheen. The tapered body sits on a broad base for stability, rising to a rolled rim and a swing handle that makes carrying and pouring straightforward. At 50cm tall, 26cm wide and 36cm deep, it holds a good measure of coal or kindling while staying easy to lift and tip towards the grate. As a fireside accessory it works hard, keeping fuel close at hand without cluttering the hearth.
The aged silver tone suits both traditional and pared-back interiors, sitting comfortably beside a cast iron grate, a wood-burning stove or an open fire. Pair it with a companion set and a log basket to build a considered group of fireside accessories, or let it stand alone as a useful vessel by the surround. Away from the fire it can double as storage for rolled newspapers, pine cones or dry logs, so it earns its place in a hall or snug as well as the sitting room.
The metal construction shrugs off the knocks that come with regular use around the hearth. Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth to lift dust and coal residue, and avoid harsh abrasives that could mark the pewter finish. Empty and dry the interior from time to time to keep it clean, and keep it clear of direct flame. With this simple care the antique pewter look holds its character for many winters.
