An incredible antique trench art ring made during the First World War.
During the war, men fighting in the trenches crafted keepsakes and souvenirs during their deployment around the world. This is one such example of this collectable military jewellery.
The aluminium for the ring shank likely came from a fuse from a German shell or a soldier's canteen, melted then crudely cast and smoothed down. The button, with the motif is of the Prussian crown, is from a German military uniform, repurposed as a wartime souvenir.
This is a genuine antique military collectable. It dates to period of World War I, 1914 - 1918.
In really nice antique condition. Please be sure to see all of the photos.
This would make an excellent gift for a military collector, or a unique statement ring.
