Description
A charming World War I trench art sweetheart brooch in the form of a stylised aeroplane. Handcrafted from white metal, likely aluminium or nickel, this piece would have been made by or for a soldier as a token of affection — a small but meaningful keepsake carried home from the front.
Sweetheart jewellery became popular during WWI as a way to maintain connection, often featuring military motifs such as aircraft, symbolising bravery, distance, and longing.
This piece has a lovely naïve, hand-worked quality simple, honest, and full of history.
Era:
c.1914–1918
Material:
White metal (likely aluminium/nickel)
Condition:
Good antique condition with wear consistent with age. Original pin back intact.
