The bronze drum has a slim form with fine geometric branding. The design features a circular top with concentric registers with a central sunburst medallion, while the body shows crosshatched lines punctuated by foliate leaf detailing. The drum has two crossed loop handles on each side for hanging. The drum has a rich dark bronze finish with a naturally mottled verdigris patinated finish to the bronze. Functional as a side table, drinks table, side accent piece, or as a garden piece. From an estate in Carmel, California. We also have another rain drum with similar form and measurements having a slightly different finish available.
