A Venetian chased iron powder flask decorated in relief with well executed mythological scenes, including winged creatures surrounding a fruit tree, and also foliate decoration throughout. The piece is quite small, indicating either that this is a purely decorative object or that it was meant especially for use with a small pistol belonging to a wealthy gentleman of the era.
