Full details

FAQs
Can I leave this bucket outside?
It is recommended for indoor use only. Exposure to rain and moisture can lead to corrosion or finish degradation.
What are the exact dimensions?
The bucket is approximately 44cm in height, 30cm in width, and 28cm in depth.
Does the shovel hang on the bucket?
The shovel is designed to be stored inside the bucket when not in use.
Is the finish heat-resistant?
The finish is decorative. While it can handle the temperature of ambient room air, it should not be placed directly inside a burning fire or on an extremely hot stove surface.
How much coal does it hold?
While capacity varies by fuel size, the volume is designed to hold enough coal for a typical evening's use in a standard fireplace.
Troubleshooting
Bucket wobbles on uneven hearths
Adjust the positioning slightly or place on a thick, flat hearth rug to provide stability.
Surface looks dull over time
Gently buff the exterior with a microfiber cloth to restore the sheen of the pewter finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No assembly is required for this product; it is ready for use immediately upon arrival. To maintain the antique pewter finish, wipe the exterior periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or steel wool, as these can scratch or dull the metallic coating. If the bucket is used to hold dusty coal, occasionally empty it fully and clean the interior to prevent the buildup of fine debris. Store in a dry indoor area to ensure the longevity of the metal finish.
