Red Border Aces Hand-Tooled Leather Flask – 150 ml

Three aces, tan scrollwork, red borders. Every mark cut by hand.

A 150 ml (5 oz) stainless steel flask wrapped in full grain leather, tooled by hand in our Jaipur workshop. Tan scrollwork rolls across a blacked, stippled ground, and a fanned three-ace hand sits raised at the centre — pips picked out in red and black. Top and bottom are finished in deep red leather with white lacing threaded through.

Small enough for a jacket pocket. The kind of thing that gets picked up off a table.

What Makes It Work

Hand-carved leather wrap. Western scrollwork cut and shaped by an artisan, with the recessed ground blacked and textured so the tan pattern stands proud.

Raised ace detail. The three cards are built up in pale leather and set above the surface, with suits and letters painted by hand. Every one is worked individually, so no two hands sit exactly alike.

Red painted borders. Deep red bands along the top and bottom, laced with white leather. Colour applied by hand, so tone varies slightly from piece to piece.

150 ml (5 oz) stainless steel body. Slim curved profile that sits flat against a pocket. Single wall — not insulated.

Hinged screw cap. The cap stays attached on a swing arm, so there's nothing to set down and lose while you pour.

How to Use It

Pour through the funnel neck, thread the cap back down, fold the arm flat. Carry it in a jacket pocket, a bag, or a saddlebag.

150 ml is the pocket size — enough for the evening, not enough to be a bottle. A good gift for a card player, a groomsman, or anyone who likes a bit of colour with their craft.

Cleaning & Care

Wash the inside only. The leather wrap must never get wet. Hold the flask upright, pour water in through the neck, tip it out carefully so nothing runs down the outside, and wipe the neck and shoulder dry immediately.

Before first use. Fill through the neck with warm water and a drop of unscented dish soap. Cap, shake gently, empty, then rinse two or three more times. Stand upside down on a cloth, uncapped, until fully dry inside.

After each use. Empty straight away — don't leave spirits sitting in it for weeks. Rinse through the neck three or four times with warm water and leave uncapped to dry.

If it picks up an odour. Half-fill with warm water and a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda, cap, shake, leave an hour, then empty and rinse well.

Never do this. No dishwasher. No submerging. No boiling water, bleach, or abrasive brushes. Do not run the flask under a tap — water tracking under the leather wrap will lift it from the body and cannot be undone.

Outside of the flask. Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth only. Condition every few months with a small amount of neutral leather balm, worked in gently along the carved lines. Go lightly over the red borders and the white cards — both mark more easily than the tan — and avoid solvents and alcohol-based cleaners, which lift hand-applied colour.

Spills. Wipe the outside immediately if anything runs down the side while pouring.

Storage. Store empty, dry, cool, and out of direct sun. Leave the cap loose so air can move through.

A note on wear. The tan leather darkens with handling and the red deepens. Both are expected.
