FAQs

Trench art refers to decorative or functional items created by military personnel, war prisoners, or civilians using discarded war material such as brass artillery shell casings during or immediately after the conflict.

Artillery shell cases were made primarily of brass alloy, which was worked using basic hand tools such as steel punches, hammers, and improvised chisels to create stippled, repousse, and chased patterns.

Authentic trench art typically displays factory ordnance stamps or dates on the shell base, hand-worked decorative repousse or punched motifs, and often features specific battleground names or military insignia.

Trench art brass shell cases can be repurposed as unique flower vases, pencil holders, or standalone decorative accents on mantelpieces, sideboards, and bookshelves.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth. If a polished look is preferred, apply a specialist brass cleaner, or leave untreated to allow the natural surface oxidisation and aged patina to remain intact.
