An attractive, large but very sturdy log basket?

We have a very big log burner so the logs tend to be enormous. Our log baskets wear out too quickly, the handles fall off or the wicker falls to bits.
Garden Trading have a lovely galvanised metal one but it's tiny.
Currently we're using 2 garden buckets but really need something prettier.
Has anyone seen some?

What you need is an antique copper (the washing tubs they used to put above a fire to do the clothes washing in). They're not cheap though - here's one on ebay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Beautifully-Patched-Vintage-Copper-Wash-Tub-Planter-LARGE/302680409575

Cheaper would be a galvanized bath tub www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Rustic-Metal-Galvanised-Planter-Garden-Tin-Tub-Trough-Bath-Handles/142726685069
