{"product_id":"brass-trench-vases","title":"Brass Trench Art Vase (x1)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA pair of vases made from genuine British 18-pounder artillery shell casings, the standard field gun shell of the Royal Artillery in the First World War. The base of one is stamped \"18 PDR\" with a 1916 date, placing production squarely within the war — likely during or just after the Somme offensive. Each casing has been hand-cut into a crown of stylized leaves at the rim and engraved with floral motifs down the body, the kind of trench art soldiers and artillerymen produced from spent ordnance during the war. A genuinely dated piece of wartime history, sold as a matched pair with the maker's stamp intact and visible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53690785300769,"sku":null,"price":375.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/0176\/9761\/files\/IMG_7069.jpg?v=1791408238","url":"https:\/\/vintique.ca\/fr\/products\/brass-trench-vases","provider":"Vintique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
