What does this mean?

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.

The item appraised is an antique whisky barrel with an integrated tap. The lever of the tap has engraved "Albany." The barrel is made of oak and bound with iron bands. There are collectors for whisky barrels, with the larger barrels frequently made into furniture such as chairs or table tops, which is fashionable at the moment. This barrel would be a nice addition to a home bar or dram bar. The estimate provided is for auction. Retail prices vary and are often much higher.

Kind regards,
Corey
