Rare 1800’s Ceramic Papaya Pre-Prohibition Whiskey Vintage Flask Nipper Foust:
$105.00

During the mid-1800s, pottery flasks were made in the form of the root vegetables that the liquor was distilled from. Home distillers used potatoes, carrots, corn, and turnips to brew strong liquors for personal use and for illegal sales. The hand made pottery flasks were filled, corked and distributed. They have become extremely hard to find as they were most often discarded when emptied of their contents. This papaya flask has bright glazing – a green neck flows into a cream, yellow ombre body. The flask lies sideways on three raised feet, and includes the original cork stopper. Realistically molded and increasingly rare. In very good antique condition, showing the expected light surface wear and some aging.
