Piece Of WW1 Shrapnel From The Somme

Please feel free to make an offer.

Quite an interesting piece of WW1 Shrapnel, recovered from the Somme.

It would of been the rear & inner part of a device. Obviously there's not much left of this one, but it does have sculptural type quality.

It's approx 6 1/4" tall, at its highest point & the base is 2 1/2" in diameter.

In expected used condition for an item of this nature. There's obviously lots of characterful corrosion & damage. The base is made from iron & the upright part is made of copper. You could clean it up but I do prefer the greenish patina.

It would make a unique Xmas present or a nice addition to a new Military collection.

Please study the images, as they also form part of the description & please do your own research.

Can post at extra cost. Postage includes being signed for. Read more
