Hand-constructed with substantial plank-wood sides, the vessel features a distinctive flared silhouette that elegantly tapers toward its square base. The architectural form is further elevated by a robust, steam-bent handle and hand-forged metal corner reinforcements secured with traditional rivets. This rugged yet refined piece serves as a timeless example of provincial folk art, showcasing the enduring beauty of hand-wrought functional objects and the warmth of organic materials.


Measuring 15.25” wide, 15” deep, and 10.25” tall, this large-scale trug is perfectly suited for modern functional needs—from holding hearth logs or magazines to serving as a textural centerpiece in a curated space. It remains in great primitive condition, with visible scuffs, surface abrasions, and a weathered finish that create a magnificent authentic patina. These age-appropriate marks celebrate its historic soul and appeal directly to the Wabi-Sabi aesthetic. Add this remarkable piece of heritage to your permanent collection to bring warmth and artisanal depth to your interior today. See less
