Hi Stu
Yes, it looks like the worms had a field day with this one. Still, very presentable. Either Moroccan or Algerian is also my guess. So difficult to pin point with many of these flasks. Imagine how long it took to stich and shrink the leather around the wood body. But it would have done a good job keeping the powder away from the elements. Rick |

Dear Stu
Difficult to say, the shape is Algerian, but the leather and the nails are Moroccan. I'll say Morocco, but from the eastern border. Here are the good Algerian ones... Kubur |

Hi Kubur
Nice examples of Algerian flasks. Yes, that shape with the carved all wood containers. I still don't have one of these in my collection. They don't seem to come up for sale often. Rick |
