Title Pair of Prussian trench art ashtrays
Nationality German
Period c 1916
Price £35.00

These are slightly unusual trench art products, inasmuch as they appear to be made from sheet brass, possibly cut from a shell case, but the unusual decorative feature is the centrepiece which in each case is the central device from a Prussian waist buckle, one with a deep crown and one with a shallow one.

The condition is OK for their age, but with plenty of nicks and dings to the brasswork, as one would expect.

testimonials

Having received the beautiful medal that has been the subject of many recent phone calls, I am absolutely delighted with it. More importantly, the research you provided into the military backgrounds of all those involved made it all the more poignant. Thank you for your highly professional and friendly help and advice throughout the transaction.

Just wanted to thank you very much for finding the sword - you have made C's day and therefore mine!
