Antique English Green Painted Coopered Barrel

This authentic coopered storage barrel from England dates to the late 19th–early 20th century and retains its original green paint, iron hoop strapping, and beautifully aged timber. Once used in cellars and general stores for dry goods, salt meats, grains or spirits, pieces like this bring instant rustic character to interiors.

Today they make versatile décor — ideal as a side table, plant stand, shop prop, drinks station, or display plinth. The surface patina, wear, and colour are completely original, giving this barrel the charming authenticity that modern reproductions lack.

A true survivor with lived history and great visual presence.
