Original Item: Only One Available. Trench art is any decorative item made by soldiers, prisoners of war, or civilians where the manufacture is directly linked to armed conflict or its consequences. It offers an insight not only to their feelings and emotions about the war, but also their surroundings and the materials they had available to them.
Not limited to the World Wars, the history of trench art spans conflicts from the Napoleonic Wars to the present day. Although the practice flourished during World War I, the term 'trench art' is also used to describe souvenirs manufactured by service personnel during World War II. Some items manufactured by soldiers, prisoners of war or civilians during earlier conflicts have been retrospectively described as trench art.

This example is completely inert and in compliance with the current BATF standards on inert ordnance.

This 75mm shell casing appears to have been turned into an oil lamp, but is missing a few components. It stands at approximately 9” tall with a base width of just a little over 3”. There is no significant damage present but the interior does have quite a bit of rust buildup.
