French antique brass cauldron perfect for a Victorian period kitchen. 19th century cooking pot. Re-enactment historical cooking pot.
A splendid old cauldron from the nineteenth century.
This old cauldron is made of brass and has an iron handle which attaches to brackets on the side which themselves are riveted on with copper rivets. This fabulous old piece has been repaired many years ago as you can see in the photos. This was back in the day when people cherished these items and made them last for generations. When they had holes appearing the villager would wait for the travelling artisan to come to the village and then get the pot repaired, you can see how it has been riveted round with a plate added. This to me adds real character to a piece and this is why I love to buy these old items with repairs because it really adds to the story and the history of the item and it takes you back to a time before our disposable society where people would really value their possessions.
As well as the repair there are a few very minor knocks but nothing that detracts, there are areas of tarnishing and some verdi gris here and there, but again nothing that detracts from the splendour of this lovely antique cauldron. The cauldron is for display purposes only, I would not recommend trying to cook with it as it has a lot of tarnishing and verdi gris on the inside.
A fabulous cauldron that would look wonderful hanging in the kitchen, a great addition to any home decor.
