Did an internet search for "Tibetan snuff flask", and found a few that have reasonably similar wirework

You nailed it Colin

I think the metal and wirework could be silver.

Unfortunately not silver as far as I can tell. Looks like brass, or a brass alloy showing a very slight silvery hue. Anyway a nice and unusual flask IMHO. Will tag as Ottoman/Balkan unless something more concrete surfaces.
Thanks Gentlemen
