Hello everyone, I bought this lovely hip flask today and I cant find what the marker on the back, if it even is a marker, refers to. I thought maybe this might be electro plated but im unsure.

I purchased it to actually use but im concerned now that the material may have lead in it? Could this be, I know pewter sometimes does.

I really appreciate any help with this and if anyway has advice on how I might clean this id love to know too.

Thank you

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Your flask will have been manufactured out of Britannia Metal.

Thanks for that, so theres no lead, as far as I can see on that, would I be correct?

Is there a best way advised on how to clean the inside?

thanks very much

Hi,

To my knowledge, Britannia Metal is a alloy of tin, antimony, and copper.

As far as the cleaning of the insides is concerned, not sure, hopefully other members may have some suggestions.

Thanks Trev, appreciate you getting back to me
