A Collection of Heavily Weathered Galvanised Steel Utility Vessels - A collection of heavily weathered utility vessels, comprising a handled jug and three graduated buckets or containers. The vessels are constructed from thick-gauge galvanised steel or iron, featuring rolled rims and seamed bodies typical of industrial or agricultural utility hardware. The jug is fitted with a simple strap handle secured with rivets. The interior of the buckets contains thick, crusty deposits of unidentified mineral or organic residue. A hand-written paper tag is attached to the jug's handle with an adhesive label, bearing the handwritten text 3 x Buck + JUG above a horizontal line and the digit 9. A smaller white adhesive label is affixed to the tag, reading Lot 053. No original manufacturer marks or stamps are legible due to the extensive surface oxidation.
