FAQs

Pocket hip flasks evolved from medieval leather and metal containers used for carrying liquids, becoming particularly popular in their curved metallic form during the 18th and 19th centuries for discreet personal spirit storage.

Authentic antique flasks are typically constructed from sterling silver, pewter, or glass with silver plating, often featuring soldered seams, captive screw caps, and hand-beaten or polished curved bodies designed to conform to the body.

Authentic period pieces are identified by clear hallmarks indicating the metal purity, makers mark, assay office, and date letter, alongside natural surface wear, patination, and traditional construction methods such as hinge pins and soldered necks.

An antique silver flask can be displayed as a decorative object on a bar cart, bookshelf, or desk, adding a touch of historical metallic sheen to contemporary spaces.

Preserve antique silver by gently cleaning it with a soft microfiber cloth and specialised silver polish only when necessary, storing it in a dry environment to prevent excessive tarnishing and corrosion.
