Hockley Heritage Hand Dipped Galvanised Green Watering Can, 2 Gallon
£140.00
notes
This contemporary version of the traditional watering can, designed in the iconic ‘Peter Rabbit’ style, combines both a heritage silhouette and modern functionality. The lattice effect of the Hockley Heritage strengthens the steel body, helping it resist dents and wear, while the fixed wooden handle offers stability, preventing spills and hand strain, with a smooth, steel back handle allowing a clean glide of the hand. The close-reach spout with wide-diameter ferrule gives a generous, free-flowing delivery of water, making light work of larger watering tasks, whilst the removeable all brass rose produces a gentle, classic spray. Built from steel, the entire can has been hand dip galvanised with molten zinc inside and out for corrosion resistance, with a durable powder coating of glossy green for a classic look.

Insights
In 1886, founder and inventor of the watering can design, John Haws, described his unique approach to this essential garden accessory as follows: "This new invention forms a watering pot that is much easier to carry and tip, and at the same time being much cleaner, and more adapted for use than any other put before the public."
