Vintage 1890s Century English Copper Haystack Measure Set
Product Description
This set of six 19th century English copper haystack measures offers a rare glimpse into the rituals of Victorian tavern life. Once used to portion ale, cider, and spirits with exacting care, these vessels were essential tools of the publican’s trade. Graduated in ascending scale, they form a complete set that reflects both purpose and beauty. Each piece is handcrafted using dovetail construction and bears the gentle marks of time—soft dents, worn edges, and a rich patina that deepens the glow of the copper. The lead verification plugs, each stamped by a local authority, confirm their historic role as officially sanctioned measures in the governance of fair commerce.Product Details
