Offered here is a striking and timeworn vintage fire bucket, made from galvanized steel and finished in its original, now heavily patinated red paint. This authentic piece of firefighting history likely dates to the early-to-mid 20th century and bears the unmistakable, aged “FIRE” stencil across the front — beautifully faded with decades of character.

Designed with a swing handle for quick response in emergencies, and a secondary loop at the base for tipping, this utilitarian relic now serves as a standout decorative accent with rich industrial charm.

✅ Original vintage galvanized fire bucket
✅ Naturally worn red paint with ghosted “FIRE” lettering on both sides
✅ Charming patina with flaking, surface wear, and a wonderfully rustic texture
✅ Traditional top swing handle plus base grip loop
✅ Approx. 12″ tall (21″ including upright handle)
