Hi Ibrahiim.
Thank you for the pics. I'll add a couple of these to my library.
Of course, these are an artist's rendition, but I have noticed in all the paintings showing the typical Barudan style powder flask, they were usually suspended from the belt versus the shoulder. As well, they appear to be about medium in size. I've noticed that all the originals offered for sale today seem to be very large in diameter. I've never seen one in a medium to smaller size. Just curious. LOL
