Stamped \u003cstrong\u003e75 DEC \/ 16 R PDP 753\u003c\/strong\u003e — a 75mm \u003cem\u003eCanon de campagne\u003c\/em\u003e shell, made at the Rennes Arsenal in \u003cstrong\u003e1916\u003c\/strong\u003e, the year of Verdun. Lot 753. Someone fired this. Someone else picked up the empty brass and made something from it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe body is covered in bold, sweeping \u003cem\u003erepoussé\u003c\/em\u003e relief — large abstracted leaves, possibly iris or calla lily, pressed from within in broad gestural strokes. Less delicate than typical trench work. More confident. The top has been cut and folded into deliberate flame-tipped tabs — a crown of sorts, medieval and striking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe patina is deep warm bronze with heavy oxidation — a century of life on this piece. There is a 3\" hairline crack down the back of the casing, but I have price it accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aimee's French Market","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45982101733574,"sku":"Vint-WWI-Crown","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/9971\/3478\/files\/IMG_2415.jpg?v=1782424234","url":"https:\/\/www.aimeesfrenchmarket.com\/products\/french-wwi-trench-art-vase-75mm-rennes-arsenal-1916-bold-floral-relief-cut-flame-crown-10","provider":"Aimee's French Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
