A Handsome Small Antique George V Solid Silver Hip Flask with a compact rectangular form, softly rounded corners and a restrained plain polished finish. A hinged domed screw cap is fitted to the top, providing a practical closure while remaining permanently attached to the flask.
The interior fittings around the neck show a warm gilt finish, creating an attractive contrast with the exterior silver. The lower section pulls away from the flask body to form a separate drinking cup, an ingenious feature characteristic of quality travelling flasks. The removable cup has a gilded interior and carries a further set of matching sterling silver hallmarks.
* The detachable gilded cup transforms this compact antique flask into a particularly clever piece of travelling silver!
Hallmarked for Sheffield, 1913.
