Please take any mention of valuations to PM or email, not on this discussion forum.

Hi NYCobra and welcome to the Forum.
Nice pair of flasks you have there. As Ian has already said, any mention of values, or requesting valuations is taboo here.
Your pair could possibly be made for the tourist market but it is a bit unusual for those to have camel bone spouts. Is the body of the flask/s hollow....check by running a piece of wire or suchlike down the spout to see if it goes all the way to the bottom. If so, then they could be made to be used, rather than just for decoration. Here is a link to some Moroccan flasks I once owned. http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...oroccan+flasks
