Vintage hip flask, or "skittle," from England. Designed to hold distilled spirits like whiskey and be carried in a trouser pocket, it has a rounded, thin shape that fits against the hip. It seems this item was given as a gift long ago, as a name is engraved on it, giving it a sense of history. The delicate thistle pattern engraved on it is also characteristic of England, and it's a piece from Edwin Blyde. How about using it for display or as part of your collection?
