Antique Copper Plated Milk Container "CZ VELD", Early 1900s

Beautifully copper plated vessel dates to the 1900s with ``CZ VELD`` and number 13 stamped on it.
Before the advent of refrigerated trucks, milk containers, such as this would be used by dairy farmers to transport milk to customers.
The farmers would load several of these containers with fresh milk, where patrons would fill their personal vessels at the market before traveling home.
To prevent spillage during the voyage, most of the milk containers had a handle that kept the lid in place.
Although it is no longer needed for transporting milk in todayu2019s world, a copper milk container can be used as a decorative piece in a kitchen or as a unique umbrella holder for an entry hall or mud room.
It could also be used to display dried flowers.
Wear and dents consistent with age and use.
When you close this jug completely with the handle pressed all the way to the back it is not easy to open by hand , then it is quite stuck.
You should then loosen the lid with some tools.
Please see pictures and video, they are part of description.
