The description was as follows:

A VERY RARE IRON POWDER-FLASK, PROBABLY SARDINIAN 17TH/18TH CENTURY
of tapering horn-shaped form, chiselled around the base with a panel of foliage carrying a long hunting gun, horns, boar spears, and oak fruit and foliage, a further panel at the top including a pair of differing game birds put up by a hound, and along the seam with laurel foliage (areas of pitting, very small holes at one end )
17.8cm; 7in
