The galvanized zinc has aged into a soft mottled grey with traces of green oxidation throughout, giving the piece a warmth and texture that feels so good to be around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLikely dating from the late 19th to early 20th century, it has the classic form of old French zinc arrosoirs (watering cans).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction is simple and delightful: rolled zinc seams, soldered joins, a fixed top handle, angled spout, and slightly domed lid. The original sprinkler rose is no longer present, which makes this one better suited today as a decorative garden or kitchen piece. The compact oval body has especially nice proportions, and there are still faint old paint markings underneath from its working life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilled with dried lavender, olive branches, or seasonal stems, this old French watering can looks right at home beside a fireplace, near a back door, or resting on a kitchen windowsill. The kind of object that quietly adds character wherever it lands. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis watering can is fully functional.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52600039899479,"sku":"DEC-034","price":336.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/19th-century-french-zinc-garden-watering-can-2.jpg?v=1769012820","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/antique-french-watering-can-in-zinc-circa-1900","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
