This flask is made completely from pre-ban Ivory. The body and the sides are Elephant and the spout and stopper are Mastidon. The flask measures 3 7/8" tall, 1 7/8" wide and 1 7/16" thick. There are two Sterling Silver bands that run around the body and a decorative scalloped ring around the spout opening.there are also two twisted brass rings on top of the body to secure and type of strap if desired. The body and sides are tastefully engraved still leaving room to personalize with initials and or dates. A very nice pocket flast for a Box Lock, Queen Ann, or even as a primer for a Gentry or English Noble Man.
