    Here is a traditional WW1 era set of mantle vases. Each stands about 12" tall.

    The vases are made from US (Remintion) 75mm shells and have oak leaves and the initials "CP".

    I have no idea who "CP" was other than most likely an American doughboy, as this was found in the US and doesn't show the typical European polishing.

    Thanks for looking.

      Thanks again bones-- these style vases are more traditional forms, but the shape and initials make them a little better than the typical examples.
