Decorated Shell Casings: The Raymond White Collection. The phrase 'trench art' originates from a WWI-era French publication, which illustrated objects made from military equipment or spent war materials. These objects were made by civilian artisans, or by soldiers in enemy prison camps, behind the lines or in hospitals convalescing from wounds. Raymond White has assembled a large collection of decorated shell casings dating from the Spanish-American War to the Bosnian Conflict. They have been hammered, etched, cut, torched, crimped, fluted, smashed, inlaid with fine silver and copper, or simply painted. Each is a unique piece of art.
