A 19th Century Royal Navy Clarkson's case. These slim leather buckets were used to carry charges on board Royal Naval vessels and would have been loaded with charges in the magazine quarters of a ship and then hoisted up to the onboard gun positions for use. This rarer example has the side handle and fantastic copper studding to the rim base and side, with a brass screw cap nipple to the underside.
A real piece of early Royal Naval history.
