    I do not normally collect anything other than Native American basketry, but I saw this and loved it. It is about 18 inches high including the handle, and about the same in diameter. It looks to be made of Oak and the handle goes all the way around from the top to the bottom. I am not sure where this was made, but it is not new. Probably made around the 1940's to 1950's.
