ABOUT PRODUCTID 41054
This early 20th-century English gentleman's hip flask exemplifies refined Edwardian design and masterful craftsmanship. Its construction features thick soda glass, meticulously encased in genuine leather with a pronounced crocodile-embossed texture, and solid sterling silver accents. Distinctive elements include the slightly curved, ergonomic silhouette with rounded edges, a vertical window for easy monitoring of contents, and a sliding, elongated cup with a gilded interior that fits precisely onto the lower part of the bottle. The silver components—both the cup and the cap—bear clear British hallmarks: the lion passant, Sheffield's crown, and the initials J.D.&S., attributing the piece to the esteemed maker James Dixon & Sons. The cap is secured with a sturdy hinge, a practical travel feature. The silver retains its mirror-like sheen, while the leather displays an authentic, noble patina. The flask is in very good condition, with no damage to the glass or metal and a naturally aged leather surface.This flask carries the voice of an era when travel was a mark of status and personal accessories were tokens of taste. Leather, gleaming silver, and heavy glass speak of a gentleman’s discretion and well-tended rituals. The subtle tension between utility and ornament turns this everyday
