Antique Brass Leaf Artillery Shell (Large)

Description: This Large Antique Brass Artillery Shell, crafted by soldiers in the trenches of France during World War I, carries a poignant blend of history and personal expression. Originally a functional component of wartime artillery, it has been meticulously transformed into a unique trench art piece. The intricate hand-carved design reflects the soldiers’ attempts to bring beauty and humanity to the grim realities of war. The rich patina of the brass, aged over a century, enhances the detailed craftsmanship, making this shell not just a relic of war, but a testament to the resilience and creativity of those who served. Its large, imposing size, combined with its deeply personal origin, makes it a rare and compelling artifact for any collector or enthusiast of WWI memorabilia.
