Anotations

Scope note:

Early American furniture for holding buckets. The furniture developed in Pennsylvania German communities in the 18th century, spread throughout the eastern United States and beyond by the 19th century. Early forms comprised a bench-like piece for holding buckets, but soon the form added shelves or cupboards with closed doors for holding water or milk buckets, cleaning supplies, or other kitchen or bathing supplies. May also be used for reproductions of this furniture form.
