Made by B.A.T. of East Germany, it is heavy-duty and functional, and was designed with the gardener in mind.

The large spout head or “rosebud” is removable.
It measures 29” long (spout to handle) x 17” tall (to top of handle). The makers mark is embossed on the top “BAT” in a circle with a bat along with the “10 TGL.” The is a band of old blue paint around the base.
