This is an amazing industrial decorative and/or functional item! It is in incredible vintage condition- minor wear consistent with age and history. All original ca. 1930s to 1950s, and has not been repainted or restored. This was purchased from a family run market in Beverly Hills, CA. It would look fantastic in a kitchen, restaurant, or general store setting. Would also make a really cool repurposed planter. It's awesome. Even better in person. less
