17th century Dutch pocket flask having nipt diamond waies created out of 14 ribs. Probably made in Liege for the Dutch market. Flasks seem to be the least common form for this type of work and I know of no other small example like this. A larger flask, also with 14 ribs pinched into diamonds can be seen in Corning here -  https://glasscollection.cmog.org/objects/35500/bottle?ctx=c3666209666120500be11bafcf0ab315ea90f526&idx=114 Height 9.52 centimeters (3.75 inches). Undamaged. This little flask might have had a pewter mount originally but there is no evidence showing that it did.
