Antique English Leather Fire Bucket
Sourced from England, this fire bucket from a bygone age will make a great conversation piece in any antiques collection.

The water from fountains, rivers, and ponds were brought back to the fire in leather buckets, similar to the one listed here, with the modernization of fire brigades gradually phasing out their usage. Heavily distressed, this cylindrical bucket includes a handle for ease of carriage, but is recommended for display only.

Ethiopian Processional Cross
This Ethiopian processional cross is crafted from cast metal and detailed with fine latticework that accentuates its masterful craftsmanship. Functioning as apotropaic objects and spiritual emblems that ward off evil spirits, members of the clergy would carry metal crosses, similar to this one, on poles during processions and liturgical ceremonies. Ethiopian monarchs made gifts of processional crosses to important monasteries whose clergy remembered them in their prayers. Symbolized as a triumph of ever-lasting life, no two crosses are the same, making this particular find a rare and reverent piece of cultural décor.
