ZelleThis handmade antique wooden bucket with a gooseneck handle was designed to collect water from pumps or taps, with the user holding the handle in one hand and supporting the base of the bucket with the other. But the beauty of its design is the fact that all properly made goose-necked buckets balance on the tip of the beak. In a perfect synthesis of aesthetic form and ergonomic design, the tip of the goose's beak always aligns with the center of the bucket below. If you put your fingertip under the tip of the goose's neck, you can lift the entire bucket without tipping the basket over and spilling a single drop of water from the belly which is formed by the bucket. It was made in the early 20th century by expert craftsmen. I used to keep an arrangement of artificial flowers in it, and it made a beautiful interior decoration. It would be a lovely addition to any home. I am asking only $100 for this item that is about 100 years old.
