<p>[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 2345853, member: 1331"]Thanks for that. I note that most of these cloth covered nautilus shell style India powder flasks seem to be in museums. Mine seems to have a strap that has machine stitching so it probably could not be earlier than about 1860 in date assuming the strap was original. Also curious about those fragile discs are. They seem to be a metal like coating over thin frosty clear material. Will look closer tomorrow.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]260798[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]260799[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
