Made from a artillery shell casing from the first world war and created by a soldier or artist - in or just after the war. The vase features a long and tapering silhouette, polished to a soft golden sheen. Near the rim, the metal has been carefully cut and scalloped, creating a crown or floral like edge. Below this a series of pierced geometric apertures, both circular and rectangular, introduce rhythm and lightness. In a strange way, it almost looks like Scandinavian modernism. Shows a wonderful hand made quality. The cuts are slightly irregular, suggesting they were made with simple hand tools rather than factory machinery. A wonderful detail. This vase combines the interesting history attached to these trench art pieces with great style and elegance. A true gem. See less
