Hi Tim,
Would you believe that the insanity never leaves. It just lurks below the surface ready to bite you again when you are not looking!
The flask looks to have some age.....certainly not a recent "tourist" type IMHO. My guess would be African, and likely sub Sahara, Sahel. Hopefully someone can more accurately provide origin.
Nice interesting flask.
