Late 18th/early 19th C. coopered piggin with riveted iron bands. Pine staves with a sharply chamfered pine bottom set deeply into the croze at the base of the staves. No cracks or splits and overall unusually tight. Extremely well-made. 7” tall with a 7” base diameter flaring to 8” at the rim. 11” to the top of the handle. Similar coopered work appears on pages 196 and 202 of Mary Earle Gould’s Early American Woodenware.
