This would have been used in vineyards for collecting grapes during harvest. There are handles on each side which have been made into the item.
The barrel is made from wood with iron bands. It is painted with a stylised coat of arms with a "V" and a flier de lys beneath a crown, flanked by two rampant lion supporters.
Château Villaret refers to a 12th century castle in Allenc, France, which likely had its own vineyards.
This would be perfect as a decorative piece in your garden planted or as it is, or even a firewood holder! This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
