Large Copper Black Powder Flask. G&J.W.Hawksley.

Heavy copper powder flask with Fox, Stag head and oak leaf pattern to the body. The flask has not been polished so there is plenty of patina and is in very nice condition with no splits to the seams and a working top spring. The only slight issue i can find is that one of the hanging loops has a period repair, hard to see under all that lovely patina! The flask does not have a makers mark but from a quick search of the old internet this example is made by the firm Hawksley!
