Trouvailles drum table why so valuable

I had no idea what this was when I bought it. Just thought it was a cool table. It is not really my style so I decided that I would sell it. My heavens, there was one shown on Worthpoint that sold for 4200.00 just this last May. Mine has the original label on it. Has an uncreased dent that could easily be popped out and some other wear. My question is...what makes this little table worth so much money? Is it the fact that it is a drum? I see other items from this company listed on different sites yet the drums are selling/listed for so much more. It is just a metal drum.

 

Well, for one... It's very chic.

It IS that! Just surprising that it is 4K worth of chic

 

Mid-century modern. And expensive in its time. Company founded in 1960 so that's your earliest date.

Well I think I will try to sell it and see what happens. Thanks for help

 

Condition looks just a bit rough but think you'll do well.
