This conical flask has a silver plated bayonet or captured cap. It is stamped "J.Y & S" (John Yates & Sons).
The dark tan coloured case has a good patina. The girth strap is attached so that the flask will sit on the near-side of the saddle. The case closes with a billet fastening and has its original top strap which attaches the flask to the D ring of the saddle. It is lined in chamois or doeskin. The top of the case is embossed with the initials "J.A.B."
