French antique Lourdes souvenir water flask, dating to the early 20th century. Made from pewter, the top is decorated with fleur de lis, one side depicts the cathedral (Sanctuaire de Notre-Dame de Lourdes), the other shows a crowd of people in early 20th century dress waiting to bathe in or drink the holy water. To the side is the Virgin Mary, above her it says “Je suis l'Immaculée Conception”. The blue antique flask would have once held holy water from Lourdes and could now serve as a beautiful piece of religious decor.
There is rusting and wear to the container, please refer to the photos. There are also a couple of small splits to the bottom.
