This is a wonderful vintage wood firken, commonly used to collect maple syrup. It is handmade and hand painted. Copper rivets and staples used in construction. Decorated with leaves, flowers and people also has "THE WARGS" and "BRETZELS' written on the sides. No, I don't know what a BRETZELS is. Comes with the lid which has a crack in it.  Baling wire is used as a handle. Overall it is in good condition, presents well. See the photos as they are part of the description.
