Sweet Antique Tin Pail in Original Pinkish-Putty Paint plate and bowl Blocks measure 1" cubedI live with the belief that beauty is everywhere if one looks for it, and an old painted tin pail can deliver as much of it as, say a very fine piece of china! I like the lines and proportions of this pail, 19th c. I believe, and its tight fitting lid and perfect arc of a wire handle. And, especially, the old pinkish taupe paint on it, more satisfying in person. Plus a perfect one to line with a plastic bag and use for picking berries or foraging
