This 10 1/8" diameter at the base firkin retains an old and unusual colored light teal green paint. It has good honest patina and wear. There is a very well-done old, make-do repair to a crack running through the band on the lid. Someone skillfully used thin wire to secure the crack. To some, this enhances the value and charm to the piece. There is a stamped maker's mark on top of the lid that is hard to read, but I've narrowed it down to "B. R. JENKINS". Overall, good condition. Late 19th C.
