Fabricated from sheet zinc with a soldered seam and a double-rolled rim band, these seaux a fleurs -- flower buckets -- carry the classic tapered silhouette that made them practical for transporting and displaying cut stems. The form is purely utilitarian and all the more appealing for it, with a flat loop handle riveted to each side of the upper body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe weathered zinc surface has deepened to a soft, mottled grey with areas of white oxidation and faint traces of what appears to be pink paint from a past market use, giving each piece the kind of honest character that decorators seek out. As a pair they work beautifully holding dried grasses, eucalyptus or seasonal branches on a farmhouse sideboard, a kitchen shelf or a covered porch; the two graduated sizes give good visual interest when grouped. The interiors show the darkening and mineral deposits consistent with years of holding water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age. On each bucket one of the two side handles is missing, leaving a clean rivet point; the rust visible at those rivet points and on the interior base is surface-level and part of the overall vintage character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmaller bucket: approx. 7.7 in diameter x 11.8 in tall (19.5 cm x 30 cm). Larger bucket: approx. 9.1 in diameter x 14.8 in tall (23 cm x 37.5 cm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Fleamarketfrance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58710555853144,"sku":"FMF-3MXRXXHY","price":95.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/775c304f5b893b13413153b4d8f876d6.jpg?v=1791550681","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/french-zinc-flower-bucket-set-09102616","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
