Antique Cloth-Covered Water Cantina with Southwestern Wool Strap

This antique water cantina is wrapped in a crafted cloth exterior, and that cloth is not decoration, it is insulation, and it is how a vessel like this kept water cool out in the heat all day long. The original strap is still on it in a Southwestern wool pattern. The small variations across the cloth tell you a person made this rather than a machine. Hang it on a wall in a mountain cabin or a Southwestern-styled room, or set it on a shelf where its story gets told.
