Powder? Flask ID needed
Picked this up a while back. Supposed to be some kind of powder flask. Not water tight. Any ideas anyone?

Hi, Are you sure it's a powder flask? is there any residual smell around the spout that would indicate any other use, maybe a medicinal flask of some kind? I can't place the style of decoration. At first I thought Caucasus/ Russian, but I can't really back that hunch up.

I honestly don't know what it is. The seller described it as a powder flask, but I have my doubts. There is no obvious smell apart from dusty old metalic etc. Here's a better pic. Thanks Gene
