US 75 mm Trench Art

Description

Made from an empty US 75 mm shell casing, the base stamped “75 mm. GUN/LOT 1272-
54 E.M.C.” and “12-189″. The decoration consists of a flared lip and a series of large
indentations with stippled background, but no words or specific design. Likely made as a
vase, but the primer has been removed so the hole would need to be plugged to hold
water for that purpose. Overall height 11 1/4″. Price includes domestic US shipping.
