<td width="100%">
Old Gentleman's flask. 19th century, Sheffield England. Made of glass with leather cover. <P><P> Measures 4 7/8" high. <P> Bottle with rounded shoulders made of old, Victorian glass - marvellous quality. The upper half has a tight-fitting leather cover with a 'window' in front & back for measuring the level of the liquid. The bottom half of the bottle is protected by a metal cover, also well-fitting, but removable. This was originally silver plated, but has darkened with age. The hinged cap appears to be sterling silver, but is unmarked, with brass inside. The original cork lining is still present and in good condition. Since the cork and glass are still in such good condition, it is unlikely that this flask was ever used. <P><P> Underneath the removable metal coat is embossed in raised letters: H.N. HEWITT & CO SHEFFIELD and in hallmark-like form: E P B M. <P><P> The entire flask including leather & metal is in extremely good condition.
