WW1 Trench Art Lamp of Crane in Landscape | Florida Estate
Here we have a 75MM trench art shell lamp with an amazing exotic landscape starring a majestic crane in the amidst of the environment. This is one powerhouse of a piece, and I can't even imagine the war machine that needed a shell this size. But someone took this shell and made a serene scene with amazing wildlife. The bluish oxidization brings out the wicked detail throughout the entire piece.
The WW1 trench artwork came out of a collector's estate in Florida. I was told the piece likely originated between 1910-1915.
The antique military artwork stands around 17 1/2" tall, and the diameter measures around 3". The shell measures about 12" tall. There is patina and oxidation from age throughout. The rare trench art lamp is filled with concrete, giving it some serious weight to stabilize. The original wiring still lights up the room. I'll leave it up to you if you want to rewire the piece. Please see all pics as they are part of description.
I ship to street addresses in the continental USA only (no PO Boxes). Free shipping on the WW1 artifact.
Art can survive anything. This beauty is proof and it will light up your life.
