Gorgeously restored with new paint and lacquered(?). Pictures #8-9 in my listing demonstrate the value of this piece. They are selling for over $100 plus you have to pay shipping, tax, and hope it doesn’t get damaged on the way. All of them are very used and look rusted. I am offering this at a STEAL. You won’t find an item in this great of a restored condition as this one. I Googled the internet and couldn’t find any. Great decorative piece or garden item. Super clean. Super heavy. Printed fire-engine red with a beautifully restored finish. Arm goes up-and-down smoothly. Even has the interior brass connection fitting to mount and use at a well (see picture). It is all functional. Also included a bit of history from the Trahern manufacturer in picture #10 in the listing. Very interesting with a thought on its age. Priced to sell fast. My Dad was an antique enthusiast who often restored pieces which may/may not lower their value. He understood patina was important but he would rather beautify his pieces. He had this, among many others I will be listing in the upcoming months, as a display piece in his mobile in Castle Rock Lake, WI. Great historical Americana and American made. I do the exchanges at Traverso’s Restaurant parking lot, 2523 Plainfield-Naperville Rd., in Naperville for CASH ONLY. I may not answer your request immediately as I am not allowed to be online at work. To be fair to the buyers, I will sell on a “first come, first serve” basis. However, if you offer amounts above my asking price to influence the sell, I will entertain other offers. Thank you so much for looking!
