Hukin & Heath - 1928

UNUSUAL STERLING SILVER AND CROCODILE LEATHER GLASS HIP FLASK: This exceptional sterling silver hip flask combines luxurious materials and ingenious design. Featuring a glass body covered on the top half with embossed crocodile leather, this flask elegantly showcases the volume of liquid remaining through openings on either side. The glass base is flat, allowing the flask to stand independently without the cup—an ideal blend of functionality and refined style.

FULLY HALLMARKED & PREMIUM QUALITY: Fully hallmarked for .925 sterling silver, with maker’s mark for Hukin & Heath, Birmingham 1928, this flask is a testament to fine craftsmanship. Measuring 6 1/4" (16 cm) tall and 4" (10 cm) wide, it holds approximately 6.25 fl oz (185 ml) when full. The flask’s lightly curved corners and subtle kidney shape ensure it fits comfortably in a trouser or jacket pocket, while the bayonet twist cap, pivoting to the side, and detachable sterling silver cup add both security and convenience.

TIMELESS DESIGN & EXCELLENT CONDITION: This flask’s unique combination of materials—glass, sterling silver, and crocodile leather—creates a piece with rich texture and timeless elegance. Free from engravings or personalizations, it offers a blank canvas for those wishing to add a monogram or initials. Carefully cleaned and polished, it is in excellent condition, with all components fitting tightly and hygienically.

A COLLECTOR'S PIECE WITH PERSONALIZATION POTENTIAL: Presented in pristine condition, this flask is an ideal addition to any collection or a distinguished gift for lovers of vintage craftsmanship. Its unadorned surface is perfect for personalization, allowing you to transform this functional art piece into a treasured keepsake. The combination of crocodile leather and sterling silver makes it both a luxury accessory and a testament to the elegance of early 20th-century design.
