EDITORS COMMENTS
This intricately crafted German cigarette case in brass dates back to the tumultuous era of World War I. The exterior of the case is adorned with a prominent "Gott Mit Uns" (God with Us) belt buckle, a symbol deeply rooted in German military history. This emblem was widely used during the 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly among the German military and naval forces. Manufactured by Ideal, this trench art piece showcases exceptional metalwork and craftsmanship. The brass case has a crown motif on the front, adding an elegant touch to its military origins. The case is open at the top, allowing easy access to the compartments inside. The historical significance of this cigarette case lies in its association with the First World War. Trench art, as a genre, emerged during times of war as soldiers and civilians sought to create art from the materials at hand. These pieces served as personal mementos, reminders of the war, and symbols of hope and resilience. The "Gott Mit Uns" cigarette case is a testament to the creativity and resourcefulness of those who lived through the Great War. It stands as a historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the past and the experiences of those who fought and survived during this pivotal period in world history.
