EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing and poignant trench art piece showcases the base of a 1915 German 75mm shell case transformed into a pocket watch holder. The repurposed base, a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of soldiers during World War I, is adorned with a beautiful floral decoration, a bullet in the center, and the regimental badge of the 1/1st Battalion Buckinghamshires, part of the 146th Brigade, 48th South Midland Division. The bullet serves as a poignant reminder of the violence and destruction of war, while the rifles, one resting against the bullet and one on the ground, symbolize the soldiers' readiness and dedication. This unique and historical artifact provides a glimpse into the daily life and experiences of soldiers during the Great War, and the intricate details of the engraving add to its aesthetic value. The use of a German shell case as a pocket watch holder is a poignant reminder of the shared human experience of war, as well as the resilience and resourcefulness of those who lived through it.
