Here is a nice and interesting powder flask and I would like to know from where this piece coming. It's 9 1/2" long, 3 1/2" broad and 2 3/4" high. The poring tube is from brass, the corpus is wood with a lacquer covering. All comments are very welcome, thank you in advance.

Your flask is from Oman.

I should also have added that the cap is missing from yours, but apart from that it looks GREAT. I am in awe of this one, as the one I have is of much more recent manufacture, and is not as refined in the finish.....pic herewith.

thank you again, yes, yours is indeed very similar. That the cap is missing was clear. Regards, Detlef |

Hi Sajen.
While your flask has similarities with the Turkish/Ottoman and Moroccan beehive flasks, I agree with Stu this is more likely from Oman. It has that dark, extra high quality you see on many Omani accessories. Beautiful looking flask. Rick. |
