Serial Number: RAF2528

Status: Display

Description:
This is an old, hand-forged iron vessel with a rounded body and a thick, heavy construction. The pot shows extensive surface oxidation and wear, indicating significant age and long-term outdoor or utilitarian use. It features a sturdy iron handle attached on both sides, with a simple vertical locking bar and a rusted metal pin securing it—typical of early handmade hardware. The wide open mouth suggests it was used either as a cooking cauldron over an open fire or as a bucket for drawing water from a well.
