Here is a picture of Theos B. in his Lama robes wearing a ceremonial canteen.The square of silk forms a sleeve for the hands, the canteen itself is a very small copper bottle, containing perhaps 2 oz. It has a wooden stopper and an elegant silver throat and cap. Cotton cord safeguards the cap and suspends the body of the canteen. At the other end of the cord is a heavy white ball, probably of coral or shell. See: T-128
