Leather Cased Spirit Flask

Leather Cased Spirit Flask

This faceted glass spirit flask has a screw on cap and two small cups, the larger of which is threaded to fit onto the flask and hold the smaller one in place.  The hide leather case would offer protection during travel. This is an item of equipment that would have been equally useful to soldiers, sportsmen, travellers and for picnics. Circa 1900.
