An enormous, and very impressive, Victorian copper harvest measure. This is probably one of the largest harvest measures that would have been produced and it has a capacity of five gallons. It is marked as such, '5 GAL', under the spout. The shape is a very typical English form. It is well made, from a heavy gauge of copper, and it has castellated seams. To the inside of the spout there is a Victorian assay mark and we have shown this in one of the images.  The piece dates from c.1850 and it is in excellent condition.
Price includes postage within the U.K.  Shipping to the U.S.A.  add £75.  Western Europe  add £20.
