20th Century Silver Plated & Leather Hip Flask, James Dixon & Sons, c.1900

About the Item

A stunning hip flask made by James Dixon and Sons. Made out of glass and then mounted with crocodile leather with a silver plated bayonet locking mechanism and removable cup, these hip flasks were extremely popular around the turn of the last century and this particular model would have been one of the most desirable items for a gentleman of the time. However it is the size that makes it particularly rare. Most hip flask would have contained less than half a pint of the owner’s favourite drink but this oversized model contains three quarters of a pint and the size difference is obvious to see in the flesh as it stands at an impressive 18cm (over 7 inches) in height. CONDITION In Great Condition - No Damage, very faint dents to the lid, please refer to photographs. SIZE Height: 18cm Width: 11cm Depth: 4cm
