Mount Vernon Leather Fire BucketThis beautifully handcrafted leather fire bucket is inspired by George Washingtons 18th century fire buckets at Mount Vernon. The original buckets, purchased by Washington in 1797, held 2 to 3 gallons of water or sand and were essential for protecting life and property from the serious threat of fires in the 18th century. Washingtons buckets, emblazoned with his name, remain on display at Mount Vernon today. Our reproduction is fully handcrafted and
