A hip flask for the man who is just as at home in a high seat as he is at the festivities that follow: 925 sterling silver, 260 milliliters, with a spaniel motif on the front.

Material and craftsmanship

The hip flask is made of solid 925 sterling silver, from the SevChern manufactory in Veliky Ustyug. The spaniel motif is set in a rectangular panel on the front: the dog in profile, head slightly lowered, with prey in its mouth, behind it cloud shapes and a floral frame of blossoms and leaves. A fine scale or wave pattern completes the scene at the bottom edge of the panel. The motif is executed in niello engraving on the polished silver, so that the drawing and background are clearly distinguished from each other. The back is intentionally left free of ornamentation – it is reserved for individual engraving.

Use and occasions

260 milliliters is the medium size among silver hip flasks: enough for a long afternoon in the high seat or a celebratory round, and compact enough for the inside pocket of a hunting jacket or the outer pocket of a backpack. The hip flask is suitable as a gift for the passionate hunter for their 50th or 60th birthday, for the dog handler after a hunting season spent together with their four-legged companion, for the best man from the hunting party, or for retirement after many years in the hunting ground. The spaniel motif makes it a personal gift for anyone who values their hunting dog as a loyal companion.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

The polished back is waiting for your engraving – a name, a date, a short dedication. The engraving is done after review and is individually coordinated. With every personalized piece, we include a SilberVerse card in 15 x 10 cm (landscape format) size: a personally designed photo card that frames your message before the flask arrives in its gift box – free of charge.

Care

Rinse the inside of the hip flask with warm water after each use. On the outside, a soft silver polishing cloth is sufficient when needed – the silver develops a natural patina over time, which many find particularly beautiful. Do not put in the dishwasher and do not use harsh cleaning agents.
