Silver Queen Victoria Hip Flask 1899

A silver hip flask with polished, unadorned surfaces that allow the quality of the silver to speak for itself. The hinged ball stopper is secured by a bayonet fitting, and the lower section detaches to form a separate cup, a practical and pleasing feature that reflects the thoughtful design of the period. Hallmarked London 1899, this is a well-made and versatile piece of late Victorian silver, equally suited to field or flask cabinet. An enduringly useful and considered gift.
