Antique Wooden Milk Urn. Water Carrier. Early Victorian. Great Condition.. 
Its days of carrying milk now long gone, this excellent urn is looking for a position as walking stick holder or similar. 
Too narrow for umbrellas and as it was made to hold liquids unless you emptied the dripped water it could stagnate.
It has fabulous age and embodies the word rustic. Plus it is actually useful, you just have to find the use that will best suit you.
I cannot prove providence but it is said that it once travelled on the cart of  'Ernie' who drove the fastest milk cart in the west.
So aBay, what does my AI buddy have to say?......

This antique wooden milk urn is a water carrier that dates back to the early Victorian era. Its rustic appearance adds character to any space. The unique urn features intricate details and is great for storage or display purposes. Made from high-quality wood, this piece is durable and sure to stand the test of time.
