Edwin Blyde Sheffield England Pewter Liquor Pewter Flask 10.5 H x 8.5 W cm

That is a hip flask with an etched or engraved design on the front. By AI, the design appears to feature Celtic knotwork interwoven with stylized dragons or similar mythical creatures. This type of pattern is often referred to as Celtic interlace or knotwork and is common in Celtic and Norse-inspired art. Made of Pewter, a traditional material for this style of flask. Purpose: A hip flask is traditionally used to hold and carry a small amount of liquor or spirits. It's designed to be curved to fit comfortably in a trouser or jacket pocket (the "hip" pocket). This item shows age; therefore might need some extra cleaning, but is perfectly usable other than a very small ding at the bottom near the signature, hardly noticeable when in use.
