Absolutely one of the best examples available is this 19th. century, original Red painted Firkin. This is a wonderful example of coopering (if that is a word). This lovely firkin has the best lapped and tucked bands you would find holding the staves on this Firkin is place as if it was made yesterday. The surface is truly fine, having its original Red paint still intact. The firkin measures 8 1/4 x 9 3/4 inches with the bottom measurement being 10 1/2 inches. Square nail construction. Please note the small sliver of wood that is out on the lid, see photo. Great paint, great form for an American Firkin. Price: $2195.00 + shipping

I update my merchandise on a regular basis but my big updates are around the end of every month. At that time I send out a slideshow featuring all of my new items. If you would like to receive the slideshow, send me an email and I will add your email address to the release. People on my email release get first peek at all the new monthly items before my ad comes out in the Maine Antique Digest. Most of the inventory I carry is 19th., 18th., and some 17th. century country primitives in original surface. I am an artist and I feature some of my original works on the site as well. I will work with you in any way possible to make your visit and your purchases as pleasant and satisfying as possible.
