Hi Bandook
Nice find. Congratulations. Those Afghan style leather covered wood flasks seemed to have been very popular in the Region. You find many original examples. I have three myself. This one I was lucky to find is extra nice condition. You often see this style of flask mounted on Afghan gun belts. Rick |

I like yours because the shape is very close to the Ottoman models that they copied... Best wishes |
