2 WWI 75mm Trench Art Vases French Cannon Shell Oak Leaf & Heart Motif
Description: If You're a Veteran, Active Duty Military or Service Member's Family - Thank You! These matching vases were made from expended 75mm French shell casings. Each has a crimped and swirled base for about 3 1/2”, then the body was impressed with a circular star-shaped tool, leaving a very attractive geometric matted finish beneath. The decorative portion of the vase is raised in relief with an oak leaf and acorn motif and an upside down heart on the base of each. The mouth of each vase is flared slightly, both with some minor dings and dents around their periphery which could easily be removed. Both pieces stand approximately 13-1/2" tall. They appear to have been painted gold, now showing scattered flaking across the surface, the flaked areas showing a dull ochre brass patina beneath. Overall a wonderful pair of WWI trench art vases, tastefully and meticulously designed and fashioned by a talented artisan (presumably a U.S. service member) from the era of The Great War. They will display beautifully - a fine addition to any militaria collection! Just a note on the photos; the bases of the shells appear to be tilted, but that's not the case - it just looks that way because of the camera angle. PLEASE NOTE: All of my items can be sold locally. If you're interested in this item you should buy it before someone else does. See my other listings for more militaria as well as Springfield, S&W, Savage, Winchester, Remington and other gun parts and accessories, custom and production knives and other great stuff I'll be listing! Shipping & Other Details: Low startingwith flat fee of $15.00 for domestic shipping via economy ground services. Expedited shipping and insurance available at cost. Please ask any questions you may have and I would be glad to answer them. SOLD |
