Lovely antique silver plated and leather covered glass hip flask.
A really usable size to fit a pocket. Unusual as the cup site over the top rather than the base, helps to prevent the cap being disturbed.
No makers mark but of the same style and quality of flasks made by James Dixon and it dates to around the 1940's.
It comes with a cork lined screw cap and removable cup.
Height 5 3/8 inches 13.7 cm
Width 2 3/4 inches 7 cm
Depth 1 1/8 inches 3 cm.
The condition is excellent and the flask is liquid tight with no leakage.
The leather is also excellent with no tears or splits.
A few scratches and some wear to the cup form age and use but nothing you wouldn't expect to see on a flask this old.
A lovely usable piece.
We are happy to answer any questions.
