This early and quite rare, Black Powder Brass Powder Flask measures approx. 7 3/4" tall and 2 3/4" across at its widest point. The Flask features a pair of “framed” images – one depicting a hunting dog lying in wait and the other depicting a pair of what appear to be pigeons. The body is bulbous and the back side of the Flask features the same design.

    The Flask features a three screw collar, a screw in cap and carries no manufacturer’s mark.

    This rare and very attractive, 1850’s Black Powder Figural Powder Flask is in very good condition. The Flask is sound and intact and features a rich and warm surface patina with no indication of recent polishing. The thumb latch is intact and the spring return is strong. Overall this rare, mid-19th century Powder Flask is well preserved and displays beautifully as can be seen in the scans below!!

    A very rare and original, 1850’s Brass Figural Powder Flask featuring embossed images of a hunting dog and a pair of pigeons and a fantastic addition to any collection!!
