Antique Flask

This is an antique water flask from the "Mughal Era" India. It is made of metal with a cloth covering, has a space to put ice in to keep water cold.

    DReb I love it, can I have it please? lol Not only is it practical but it's beautiful as well. Today we just get regular old plastic or steel termoses. Boring.

  3. Moi, Welcome to global themes. Separating the ice apparently keeps it from melting faster, the metal is silver so it helps and is light. And it is a beautiful piece, the cloth covering is quite intricate.

    Shaira, its a thing of beauty, you want it? of course you can have it, lol.
