You can use this vintage Hungarian enamel water bucket to store water for plants or use it as a decorative piece. When using it to hold water, make sure the water is clean to avoid any corrosion on the enamel. To keep it in good condition, avoid using abrasive cleaners. Instead, gently wipe it with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Don't expose it to extreme temperatures as it might cause the enamel to crack. Store it in a dry place when not in use.
