This beautiful polished hexagonal pewter piece strongly resembles Wilton Armetale's Mulberry Hill ice bucket, although it is smaller and there is no maker's mark anywhere on the item. Not sure if it is a knock-off or it was missed getting its stamps at the factory. It also would not be an ice bucket that could fit ice and a bottle of wine, maybe just ice for drinks. It was used as a decorative piece, so it has no history of any kind of use. But it is so very beautiful.
The lid is wood with a pewter knob on the top. It measures approximately 8-inches from the base to the top of the wooden lid. The diameter is approximately 5.5-inches. The finish does have a couple of small scuffs as is normal for a piece its age.Please see pictures for condition and individuality.
