			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   | |

 If it is, then its is obviously designed to be attached to something. I DO think "powderflask" but from where??????????? Have you had a look inside to see what the residue colour is? Stu | |

 Just one suspension ring on that side. Other side is the same as the visible one, just without the loop. Residue.. well its grey/black. Cheers Gene | |
