Artzi has had a couple for sale in the past. And I should have bought one while I had the chance. But I haven't seen anything offered for a while. But I haven't been looking very hard either, being busy with other gun projects.
I know of one currently for sale. But the seller wants wayyyy too much for it.
Maybe one of the other Forum members has an example?

Good luck on your search. The photos on the stamps that Kubur posted are typical of the wood styles I've seen. And there does seem to be some cross usage/design between Algeria and Morocco with these flasks. They don't seem to turn up for sale very often.
