Garden Syringe

Vintage garden spraying syringes, also known as hand-pump sprayers, evolved from early force pumps used in Greece and Rome, with mentions of their use for sprinkling and dispersing water. The Four Oaks Spraying Co. patented an "undentable syringe" in 1903, and by the 1960s, plastic pressure and hand pumps replaced them.

This syringe is getting a makeover with a brass lamp holder and will sit proudly on a wooden plinth. Imagine gifting this quirky item to a gardener who loves their garden - they might just start using it as a magic wand for their plants!
