Trench Art....

Handmade items by soldiers during times of war. These are match safes made from melted down shell casings. Ebay is a great source for finding these one of a kind items.

I have never seen one of these. They are beautiful.
Thanks for sharing.

I agree. I found it interesting to see what men, who weren't necessarily artists, created during a stressful and dangerous environment. Would love to own one of these pieces.
