A small sterling silver and leather travel drinking flask with large removable drinking cup. This is a stunning little piece, very simple in design and the perfect pocket companion.  The body splits in two between the leather and the silver for a removable drinking cup that completely slides off the body. This cup also doubles as an added layer of protection to the flask, to prevent any damage to the precious cargo.  There is a narrow oblong cut window through the leather in order for one to judge the capacity, and the need to re-fill, before its too late!

This particular flask is a superb size to fit in any pocket, travel bag or handbag.  This size is convenient to carry, and can easily be concealed due to its size, however is still very practical, and would contain enough for a sports game or hike.

The lid is not the 'classic' bayonet style fitting, but instead more akin to a bottle.  It completely unscrews from the body. It has a cork liner to prevent any leakage, and closes to leave a very secure fit, free from leaking. The piece is in excellent condition throughout with the leather having taken on a beautiful patina from a century of being loved. Made in Sheffield, England, in 1930 at the height of the Art Deco movement.  It was made by a small, boutique silversmith who has not been identified from their makers marks.
