This is an authentic antique solid brass barrel tap with a beautiful, detailed handle design. It shows great historical craftsmanship with hand-filed markings on the underside and a natural aged patina. The main stem has heavy threading that was originally used to screw directly into wooden barrels or kegs. The curved spout also has threads inside it. It is an excellent piece for home bar decor, antique collectors, or unique design projects. Available for pickup from Thornleigh 2120, or shipping can be arranged anywhere at the buyer's expense.
