I was asked to see what info could be given about this beautiful piece of trench art. If anyone has info feel free to share

 

The info I have is that it belonged to her great grandfather who made the knife in this post for his son http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/270851-29th-inf-110th-fa-set-of-roger-a-hawk/

To me, it appears to be a WWI 75mm French shell case, probably made in March 1917. These were often sold after the war to battlefield visitors.
