The Armani Verso Flask
You can’t watch any prohibition era movie without seeing someone taking a swig from a flask. They were quite popular at that time so that people could conceal the fact that they had their favorite prohibited beverage with them. In truth, flasks have been around much longer than that however. They actually date back to the 18th century when mostly the wealthy used them. During the age when a gentleman did his drinking away from a lady’s view, it was common to use a flask so they could imbibe in a more private manner. Flasks were also appreciated by soldiers due to their portability in the field.
Even though times have changed, people still sometimes face circumstances when it is advantageous to conceal one’s beverage. There are many public events where alcohol is not served and cannot be openly consumed. This use makes flasks still rather popular with some people. Cigar aficionados sometimes enjoy dipping their cigars in their liquor of choice to flavor them and thus find a flask useful for this purpose. There is a growing trend of flasks becoming a status symbol. Therefore we are now seeing flasks on the market that are decidedly elaborate and meant to be seen rather than concealed.
Few things say class like anything made by Armani/Casa, and their Verso Flask is no exception. The Armani Verso Flask is part of their Verso collection which includes a matching magnifying glass and letter opener. All three products are covered with shagreen. Shagreen is an untanned leather made these days from sharks and stingrays, however many products are made with a faux shagreen. The Armani Verso Flask measures 3.5” x 1” x 5” making it just right for fitting into a jacket pocket yet large enough to hold enough of your favorite libation.
Whether you need just one flask or like to collect flasks, the Armani Verso Flask is highly recommended.
