a Vintage military canteen, specifically a Pattern 1937 (P37) Water Bottle of British origin. These were widely used by British and Commonwealth forces (including South Africans) during and after World War II.
Item Overview
Body: The canteen is made of galvanized steel or enameled metal (the "mottled" look is typical of aging galvanized surfaces).
Webbing: It is held in a Pattern 37 canvas cradle. The "skeleton" or "cross" strap design was the standard infantry configuration to secure the bottle to a soldier’s belt or haversack.
Stopper: It features a traditional cork stopper with a metal cap and a small loop for a retaining chain (the chain appears to be missing in your photos).
