Set of 15 Bezalel Academy Judaica Silver and Brass Decorated WWI Shell Cases
About the Item
A set of 15 Bezalel Academy Judaica silver and brass decorated WWI shell cases
Jerusalem, c.1930
28cm high x 9cm in diameter
Valuable both for their religious and decorative qualities, as well as for their remarkable history, these pieces are a set of fifteen WWI brass shell cases, which have been subsequently repurposed and reused by the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem. Marked for their locations of use in the conflict, they were then taken to Israel where they were decorated and inlaid with copper and silver and turned into decorative objects by the historic and prestigious academy, which is now the preeminent school of arts and design in Israel. Each is stamped for the place of origin, and many bear the Bezalel stamp on the underside. With their curious history and their striking repurposing of use, they are truly unique and invaluable pieces.
