Cobalt Sunburst Flask<BLENKO GLASS COMPANY Outlet

This Mouth Blown, Hand Formed Flask Emulates A Circa 1830-40 Whiskey Flask From The Early Glass Houses Of New England.

A Cork Secured The Precious “Liquid Corn” That Was Dispensed In The Flask, Shaped To Easily Slide Into A Pocket. Each Flask Bares A Scar On The Base Where A Pontil, Or Metal Rod, Was Attached To Hold The Hot Glass Object For Hand Tooling Of The Bottles Mouth.
