WOODEN POWDER FLASK for COMMENT and ID
I have recently acquired this nice and unusual wooden powder flask with bone inlays. It was identified as Moroccan but it has since been suggested that it could be Algerian. As a matter of interest there is another one of similar shape and size but without any inlays, on a certain website. I can not show pics of this one as it is still "live", but this one is described as Turkish.
Now, it is likely that the one shown here, COULD be described as "Ottoman", due to the expanse of the Ottoman Empire, but I am interested to find out WHERE it comes from. Stu |
