EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing and historically significant WWI inkwell takes the form of a German soldier's Pickelhaube, or pickel helmet. The Pickelhaube was a distinctive part of the German military uniform during the First World War, characterized by its tall, spiked crest and leather chinstrap. This inkwell, a beautiful example of trench art, repurposes this iconic symbol of the German military for a more practical use. Trench art refers to the creative works produced by soldiers during times of war, often using materials readily available to them in their surroundings. Inkwells, like this one, were a common form of trench art, as they provided a necessary item for writing letters and keeping records in the field. The intricate detailing on this inkwell is a testament to the skill and creativity of the soldier who crafted it. The spiked crest and leather chinstrap have been faithfully replicated, giving the inkwell an authentic and collectible quality. The inkwell's body is made of brass, with a glass reservoir for the ink. The lid is also made of brass, and features a hinged design, allowing for easy access to the ink. This WWI inkwell in the form of a German soldiers Pickelhaube is not only a functional object, but also a historical artifact that tells a story of the past. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of soldiers during times of war, and the enduring symbolism of the Pickelhaube in military history. This unique piece would make an excellent addition to any military history collection or office décor.
