The design was inspired by the hulls of ships, and is called the Congo. It is included in the permanent collections of numerous museums.

The ice bucket is tall and is approximately 19.5” high, 9” across the top, and 5.5” across bottom. It is in excellent preowned condition, with minor marks consistent with age and use. The orange interior is in good condition.

This piece would make a nice complement to your midcentury decor, whether in a kitchen, living room, man cave or bar. It is an excellent example of midcentury design.

I perform research on each item to ensure that my descriptions are as accurate as possible, but I welcome any information a viewer can provide. I acknowledge that I am not an expert and I am always interested in learning more about Midcentury or vintage things.

The majority of my listings are vintage, and as a result, there are often marks, consistent with age and use. These may include minor surface scratches, nicks or scuffs. I do my best to point out condition issues with the pictures. A viewer can always request more pictures. I do not clean or repair items, except for dusting the surface.

I also don’t know the history of most items, unless they are from my personal collections. Therefore, I am unable to state whether they are from smoke-free or pet-free homes.
