I’ve shown this flask on another thread. But I cannot find out who made it or how old it is.
After researching, it’s an excellent copy of a G. & J.W. Hawksley flask, which were made in Sheffield, England during 1830-1860s.
It’s definitely a reproduction, but I can find no marks or history of who made these. Any ideas?

The "Sheffield" marked repro's were imported from India.
