Description: | Post medieval cast lead alloy powder flask nozzle, sometimes known as an Apostle. It is a small circular vessel with a straight sided, circular sectioned nozzle widening to a circular base. It probably dates to the 17th Century. The nozzle is 17mm in length and the flask as a whole is 34mm in length. It is now squashed and the two loops that would have projected from the sides of the base where it meets the nozzle are probably worn or broken. These would have allowed it to be attached to the bandolier and the body of the powder measure by a cord.
