Bring a little Monterey magic to your home bar.
This vintage Courroc ice bucket features a stunning waterfowl scene — swans, ducks, and shorebirds gliding across stylized gold ripples — set against Courroc’s signature textured black exterior. Finished with a polished brass swing handle and matching brass knob, it’s the kind of piece that instantly elevates a bar cart.
Founded in Monterey, California in the 1940s, Courroc became known for its distinctive inlay designs and sculptural barware that perfectly captured the glamour of mid-century entertaining. Their ice buckets were especially iconic — practical, stylish, and designed to coordinate with trays and serving accessories.
This piece includes:
• Original brass hardware
• Removable insulated plastic liner
• Courroc marking on exterior and interior label
• Textured black exterior with gold wildlife motif
The interior liner is clean and intact. Exterior shows light vintage wear consistent with age (please see close-ups). The brass knob shows patina at the base — a beautiful sign of authenticity and age.
This is the kind of statement piece that makes your bar cart feel curated — not decorated.
Perfect for:
• Mid-century modern home bars
• Lake house or coastal styling
• Vintage barware collectors
• Statement hostess gifts
• Cocktail lovers who appreciate iconic design
