Chinese vacuum flask (often referred to generically as a "Thermos"), typically produced between the 1970s and 1980s. These flasks are well-known for their colorful, hand-painted style floral graphics on a metal (often aluminum or tin) exterior and the use of a natural cork stopper.
Key Features and Identification
Origin: Many of these flasks were manufactured in China, sometimes under brands like "Deer Brand," "Flying Crane," or simply marked with Chinese lettering on the bottom.
Materials: They typically feature a metal outer shell (aluminum or tin-clad) with a glass vacuum liner inside for heat retention.
Stopper: The natural cork stopper is a classic feature of these older models, designed to provide a secure seal without the use of plastic.
Collectibility and Market:
These flasks are popular as vintage decor or "shabby chic" kitchen accents. Similar vintage Chinese floral thermoses are currently listed or have sold on platforms like eBay, Etsy, and Chairish. Prices for these items can vary based on condition and size, often ranging from approximately $20 to over $70.
This thermos is very “shabby” and was used for decoration in a collection of kitchen shabby wares. It is faded, dented and scratches but waiting for the next person to cherish it. Please ask questions. Priced accordingly.
