This is a classic sterling silver flask by the premier American silversmiths at Tiffany & Co. with unusual decoration. This flask has a traditional curved, rectangular body with rounded edges and a flat shoulder that supports a hinged and threaded button-shaped lid. The lid is reinforced with cork and the interior has a gold wash. The front is decorated with an enameled design depicting the Camel cigarette logo of a camel in profile against a subdued red background. This discreet decoration paired with the flask’s simple design makes it timeless but also a unique example of 20th century American advertising. This flask is in excellent condition and measures approx. 7 1/8” high, approx. 4 1/4” wide, approx. 1 1/2” deep, and it weighs approx. 13.5 troy ounces. It is marked under the base with the mark of Tiffany & Co., the words Makers, Sterling Silver, 925-1000, pattern number 20142R, order number 9718, the letter M for John C. Moore, Tiffany’s president from 1907-1947, and 4 Gills. Made with Tiffany’s superior quality and craftsmanship this antique silver flask would make an excellent gift and could be monogrammed or engraved.   Price: $1,200.00   Stock #BD848
