These flasks were used from the 1600's to mid 1800's, such as when liquids that go together need to be kept separate

Rough Pontiled Two-Sectioned Gimmel Flask, Circa 1820-1850
| Embossing |
none |
| Color |
deep "old" amber |
| Height |
7 3/4" |
| Top(s) |
crude plain lips, each with a small dimple fashioned as a tiny spout for pouring |
| Base |
polished rough pontil |
Structural Condition |
perfect - no chips, cracks, dings etc. |
| Surface Condition |
this bottle has loads of crudity with some hammered surface texturing. It's also pretty clean with just a bit of overall dullness. Only detraction is that each flat side has high point wear from laying on the side. It would easily polish clean if desired and if you anchor the twin top differently. |
