About the Item

Reproduction in solid 800 silver of an old Italian military ration box with spoon The body is hammered and has a wire handle mounted on the sides with an eyelet. Another silver wire, also swinging, has been fixed behind it, suitable for being attached to the soldier's equipment. On the front of the mess tin, 2 small silver plates have been welded which were used to position the spoon. The lid, free and not hinged, served as another container and for drinking liquids. The Italian mess tin, of semi-elliptical shape, was supplied to the Italian soldiers who entered the war in 1915 and were equipped with this mess tin from 1872 which had been modified in 1882 and 1885 and was made of tin or sheet metal. It did not change even in 1896. This is the troop model, distributed to all components of the army except the Alpine troops who had a larger variant.
