Default Powder flask for identification

Have get this small powder flask, it was stated that it is from parchmenty leather. It is 17 cm high. I have read or heard that it was usual in some regions to use camel scrotums for powder flaks and the statement that it is from parchmenty leather let me assume in this direction. I still wait to get it in my hands so here only the picture from the auction house.
Would be someone able to tell me from where this powder flask coming and if I could be correct? Age? All other comments are welcome.
