This antique wooden bucket can be used in many ways. You can use it to store small items like keys, coins, or even as a flower vase to add a rustic touch to your room. When using it, be gentle as it's an old item. Avoid dropping it or applying too much force. To maintain it, keep it in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping. You can wipe it with a soft, dry cloth regularly to keep it clean. Don't use harsh chemicals on it as they might damage the wood's finish.
