https://www.decorativecollective.com/dealers/billy-huntVintage Fire Bin on Wheels From Richard Arkwright Masson Mills
“Masson Mill was built in 1783 and proclaims Arkwright’s growing wealth and self confidence. Unlike the mills at Cromford, it is built on a major river, the river Derwent, which offered Arkwright the opportunity of a power source ten times greater than he enjoyed at his Cromford site. The mills are part Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO World Heritage Site and are now home to a textile museum”
We are fortunate to have purchased the Fire Bin direct form the mill which would have been used in the winding shed. This is going to make a fabulous log holder or maybe cane or umbrella holder with its genuine worn look and feel to the red paint and black lettering “WINDING SHED FOR FIRE ONLY”. It sits well on the 4 heavy castors which are spinning well and we also have a lid!
A truly tremendous opportunity to own a piece from a historic English mill in lovely historic and time worn condition.
