Vintage Green Enamel Steel Wash Tub – Project Piece

Description : Large round enameled steel wash tub finished in pale green with a dark rolled rim. The tub measures approximately 23 inches in diameter and 13 inches tall and shows extensive authentic working wear, including chipped enamel, scratches, exposed steel, oxidation, and heavy rust concentrated around the bottom. Several areas on the bottom have rusted completely through, so the tub should not be considered watertight. Its worn industrial character makes it suitable for repurposing as a dry planter, garden display, storage container, prop, or restoration project rather than dependable liquid storage.
