A neat antique etched flask, circa 1920s. Such a magical piece. This flask features an etched "Musketeer" (wearing a wide brim hat and ornate garb). Still has the original cork inside the flask. The detailing of the etched scene is lovely depicting a 17th Century Musketeer and his lady companion in a tavern. Heavier in weight, this flask has a solid feel to it. Truly a neat antique flask. It holds 8 ounces. Truly a neat, antique flask.
Condition: Good vintage condition with some signs of age. We like to be thorough when it comes to our antique pieces, so here's a full summary:
1) There's a security link between cap and flask that is present but missing one tiny screw that holds both sides in place. So it easily slips out of the area that holds the bottom, see photo #10 and photo #8
2) The "ring" that's attached to the security link arm has become separated. It still holds the cap, but please note the separation (see photo #8 for reference)
3) There's general age and "surface wear"
4) There's mild tarnish (we have not polished this piece)
5) The cork is in good condition overall but does show age
6) No dents or dings
In short, this antique flask is in good condition overall but does show minor signs of age and has a broken ring on the security link section as well as a missing screw that holds both sides into the bottom of the security link. This piece displays beautifully. Truly a magical flask.
**Please Note: we typically do not test our flasks for leakage. We offer a variety of vintage flasks (both usable as well as collectible/display only). We are happy to put our flasks through a thorough leakage test (which involves filling it with liquid and rigorously shaking it) -- please message us if you'd like us to test this particular flask. Cheers!
Hallmarks: Silvercraft E.P.N.S (electroplated nickle silver aka silver-plated) and "8 oz" can be found on the bottom of the flask and a trio of small hallmark symbols.
Measurements: Approx 6 1/4" tall x 4 1/4" wide
